With this book, the in-depth reference work "Media Facades – History, Technology and Content" is sequelled by a stock take: what developments have there been in the last three years? Which kind of media façade has established itself? How can media façades be integrated into today's often "curvaceous" architecture and urban landscape? These are just some of the questions which are examined by looking at around 35 current examples, supplemented by interviews with early protagonists from this field, scientists, journalists, product developers, and many more.
New trends, directions and technologies are discussed and the important topic sustainability is not forgotten either. With projects, amongst others, by Asymptote, Big, realities:united, and UNStudio.
