As we prepare for The Metals in Construction magazine 2018 Design Challenge: Design the Next-Generation Facade, we'll do a look back at last year's competition.

The Metals in Construction magazine 2017 Design Challenge: Reimagine Structure asked participants to fully integrate the building’s skin and structural systems to provide not only environmental protection but also resistance to wind and seismic forces. Entries were judged on the amount of embodied energy reduced in the form of building mass, as well as on the overall performance of the integrated systems.
