The modular building façade 1 comprises a plurality of façade elements 2 suitable for mounting together to form a façade for a building structure 3. Each element has a metal chassis 5 with parallel inner 6 and outer 7 walls spaced apart with a thermal insulation layer 8 between them. Mounting connectors 10 on the inner wall project outward for attachment to the building structure. Wall ties 15 project outward from the outer wall and support a decorative façade 16. Edge seals 18,19, 20 are provided between adjacent elements. The mounting connectors may have T-shaped heads 35 engageable with re-entrant slots in mounting plates 36. The connectors may seat on support bars (37, figure 2) suspended by adjustment screws (38, figure 2) below the mounting plate. The edge seals may be airtight and may comprise metal extrusions 22,23 with outward-facing seal mounting channels 24,25. Door/window assemblies may be mounted on the chassis between inner and outer walls. The decorative façade may be brick, stone or glass.
