Abstract

The governance of sustainable energy represents one of the principal concerns in the current era. The escalation of global warming and the depletion of natural resources have become progressively pertinent issues, underscoring the crucial role of sustainable architecture in addressing these pressing concerns. In the context of advancing sustainable development and environmental preservation, contemporary construction processes hold significant importance. Sustainable design in architectural practices plays a crucial role in strategizing the construction of buildings to curtail their energy consumption and utilization of natural resources. In the context of escalating standards for energy conservation, twin-layered façades are gaining significant traction. This paper aims to substantiate that incorporating a double façade in structures is not just a trend, but a critical component in the execution of sustainable growth. These façades play a key role in improving energy management and enhancing the quality of urban life, by yielding quantifiable ecological and energy outcomes.
