Abstract:Productive Facade (PF) is a multi-functional system used in sustainable and productive cities, it is the integration of farming and Photovoltaics PV cells in façade design. Conversely, buildings could play a serious role in energy and food production while transforming cities from consumers to producers. Therefore, this paper reviews the current literature to propose a design strategy for PF. Then, the paper introduces a comparative study between different alternatives of PF in residential buildings in arid de… Show more
