Dynamic building skins as well as kinetic components at various scales and applications that take advantage of material properties and geometric principles will be presented to illustrate their perspective. Their work points towards the design of building skins that promote a deeper understanding and appreciation of our environment\, where building skins are conceived as mediators that establish meaningful connections with our context instead of separating us from it. \ndate\nTuesday\, 13 January 2026 | 17:30 – 19:00 p.m.. \n This lecture is part of the AdvanceAEC partner seminar series. Please register or log-in to your account to access the event credentials. \n \n \n\n\n \nbio\nOlga Mesa and Nathan Fash are Associate Professors of Architecture at Roger Williams University and co-founders of Nuvola Studio\, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization with a mission to leverage research\, architectural design\, construction\, and material innovation to enhance education\, the environment\, culture\, and communities.
