Effects of Building Materials on Sustainable Facade Design

Abstract

Facade designs are crucial in creating the identity of buildings, as they allow buildings to interact with users, form ideas,
and evoke curiosity. Designers have been working to develop materials for facades since 7000 BC, with sustainability being
a key subheading in the innovation process. Sustainable architecture has evolved, influenced by lifestyles, geographical
conditions, social and physical needs, and economic reasons. Through the examination of many instances of the material's
historical evolution, the purpose of this research is to investigate the impacts of the material that is utilized in sustainable
building designs. It also examines examples of the use of nanotechnological facade materials, which are among the
sustainable facade technologies of the future. Within this context, the methods being followed about the issue have been
determined and the possible solutions have been discussed.
