Overview: Timeworn or shoddily designed exterior systems can be a challenge for building teams trying to turn around a facility's image. Some owners and designers have found clever, cost-effective ways to rise to the challenge. This epitomizes the struggle to improve aesthetics and image, energy efficiency, functionality and structural integrity. The paper discusses whether owners should replace or rehabilitate the familiar commercial building stock. While there is still much to understand about the cost-effective design and retrofit of older office structure facades, curtain wall retrofits will continue to play a significant role in their evolution and destiny.
