Abstract
The paper aims, to trace the evolution of the façade from the point of view of aesthetics, from Modernism to the present. Different perceptions manifested in terms of design principles , materiality and tectonics will be described through case studies of different facades. Expression in phenomenological terms will be analysed. The paper will put forth that the wall is no longer static or singular in purpose and with new technology ,it is dynamic and as in contemporary life , events ,unpredictability and quick change are key factors and the wall as in the façade has evolved to reflect this.
