With people's continuous pursuit of high-quality life, the construction market has also seen a boom. In the continuous development, stone curtain wall is sought after by people because of its elegant appearance and convenient construction. Based on this, the article explores the application of stone curtain wall in the design of building facades, starting from the importance of building facades and curtain wall design, This paper expounds the basic principles that should be followed in the design process of the external facade of a building, such as paying attention to the times of the external facade design, paying attention to the regionality of the external facade design, and paying attention to the popularity of the external facade design, and nine kinds of expression methods commonly used in the design process of the external facade of a building, such as addition, subtraction, concavity and convexity, insertion, rotation, fracture, stretching, dislocation, bionic, etc. And in the application of stone curtain wall in the design process of building facades, this paper puts forward the application conditions of stone curtain wall in the building facades, the composition of stone curtain wall, the external decoration in the design process of building facades, and the treatment of curtain wall separation seams in the design process of building facades. It hopes that this paper can provide certain reference and inspiration to the industry and provide certain guarantee for the development of stone curtain wall.展开更多

Architect composed their work by applying the cross-pollination of design method. They adopted the various elements to enrich their building＇s facade in order to look different. On the other hand, the traditional architecture expressed the tribe civilization by placing their proud artifacts into the building＇s facade. The purpose of this study is to find a new theory of architecture during their process of becoming of the architecture＇s form. The study applied a phenomenological investigation method of several highrise building＇s facade at Jakarta and several districts of Singapore, Brisbane and Melbourne. The study result is a new theory named ＂the fashion-architecture＂ is a building composed by adopting the cross-pollination of design method. To enrich the building＇s facade, architect adopted anything including the fashion＇s design elements： accessories, millineries, and cosmetics also reflected by the traditional architecture. Their fashion-architecture works are reflecting the tribe civilization into a contemporary architecture design.展开更多
