Visiting architect, Merritt Bucholz of the award winning Dublin based firm, Bucholz McEvoy, engaged in a conversation with SCE’s David Lewis about facades.  In this discussion ideas of the facade will were scrutinized in terms of geometry, proportion, form, environment, procurement, (shop drawings), mock-ups, fabrication, and the demands of environmental performance, all as competing aspects of any facade.  The facade is also understood as part of a continuos biosphere that can be evaluated aesthetically  and that is by its nature ‘facing both ways’, inside / outside.
