The 17th edition of the Future Envelope conference is taking place on 25 June 2026 in Delft.
This edition’s conference will focus on “Nature-Inspired Façades.” Nature-inspired façades have gained significant momentum in recent years. Concepts such as regeneration, biophilia, biomimicry, and biodiversity increasingly influence material choices, design approaches, and fabrication methods. In light of today’s ecological and climate challenges, it is essential to critically assess these developments and reconsider the role of nature in contemporary building envelopes.
International experts from research, industry, and design will share insights into how façades can respond to natural systems, learn from biological models, withstand environmental forces, and contribute to a sustainable human–planet relationship. The event offers a valuable platform for interdisciplinary exchange and for advancing next-generation, nature-inspired façade strategies
