Conversations with the Facade Squad
Join us once a month for quick 30 minute conversations on all things facades. We promise this won’t be boring, just two guys that love to talk about facades, materials and design.Every month we will focus on a different topic, drill down to the nitty-gritty details and at the end, hopefully you had a good time and learned something new.
We look forward to seeing you in the sessions (don’t worry video will be optional) for a great conversation.
Why Attend:
- Learn something new about facades
- Be part of a great conversation
- Collaborate with other design professionals
- Have fun | Laugh a little

We all know prefabrication is a better, smarter way to build but as a designer, where do you start? We will chat about how to approach a prefabricated building envelope, what to consider and how it can make you a facade superstar.
Let's face it, as architects we shape the skyline and nothing is worse than every building looking the same. We will discuss how to design with terracotta, brick, metal panel, tile or a combination of materials to help change the view.
Collaborative design takes on a whole new meaning with prefabricated systems. We will discuss how our target value design process works and how we help you achieve the aesthetic vision on budget.
The two do go together, like peanut butter and jelly. There a lot of factors and options to consider. We will take a crack at separating myth vs. reality and how to choose the best solution for your next project.
