WELCOME WELCOME TO FACADES+ TORONTO! The Architect’s Newspaper is celebrating our 10th Anniversary Year of Facades+ conference programs in 2022. After 2 years of disruptions, we are thrilled to welcome new attendees and longtime supporters back to Facades+ series of dynamic dialogues. At every Facades+ conference, we bring fresh and relevant programming to each city and are ecstatic to return to Toronto. Facades+ Toronto brings together top professionals from the worlds of design, engineering, fabrication, and construction to consider how the building envelope expresses itself in Toronto and beyond through performance, material, and collaboration strategies. We’d like to thank our conference Co-Chair, Carol Philips and the team at Moriyama and Teshima, who have curated this excellent program of design leaders. With presentations on reducing embodied carbon, high-performance housing design, and narrative qualities of facades with First Nations architects, there are sure to be projects to inspire you. We invite you to connect with presenters and your peers during networking breaks in the Methods+Materials Gallery. Please get to know the industry-leading sponsors in the Methods+Materials Gallery and learn how they shape the future of building-facade technologies. Has Facades+ struck a chord with you? Have a look at our upcoming events held in cities across the country. Visit The Architect's Newspaper’s website to learn more about our other events and opportunities to earn your CEUs. We are eager to hear from you about how we might improve the Facades+ experience. Talk to us. And please spread the word—help us to continue to grow the Facades+ community. All the best,
