1. Introduction -- 2. From wall to façade : Solid wall construction ; Warm façade, cold façade ; Openings in solid wall construction ; Walls with skeletal structure ; Resolution of the wall into loadbearing structure and façade ; Double façades -- 3. Principles of construction : Areas of construction ; Openings in façade constructions ; Assembly -- 4. Detailing and tolerance : Building grid and positioning of components ; Combination of functions ; Detailing principles ; Layering of details ; Examples of detail development ; Tolerances -- 5. Climate and energy : Façade as interface to the exterior ; User comfort ; Regulating the comfort level with the façade ; Sun and glare protection ; Light-directing systems -- 6. Adaptive façades : Sun ; Light ; Heat ; Greenhouse effect ; History of adaptive façades ; Collector façade ; Double façade ; Alternating façade ; Integrated façade -- 7. Case studies : Unit system façade : Debitel Headquarters, Stuttgart ; Solid concrete façade : Zollverein School of Management and Design, Essen ; Free-form metal façade: Guggenheim Museum Bilbao ; Timber-frame structure with multiple cladding: Hageneiland Housing, Ypenburg -- 8. A look into the future : The forces driving new developments ; Materials and technology ; Production and assembly ; Evaluation strategies ; The integrated envelope
