Beyond the Frame: How High-Performance Fenestration Expands Design Possibility

As energy codes and performance standards across North America become more rigorous—such as the BC Energy Step Code, Energize Denver, and the Massachusetts Stretch Code—architects, engineers, and envelope consultants face increasing pressure to deliver efficient buildings without sacrificing aesthetics or affordability.

This session explores how adopting a whole-building design mindset, with a focus on high-performance fenestration, can unlock new flexibility for project teams. Rather than viewing windows and doors as constraints, high-performance fenestration can be leveraged as design enablers that contribute to thermal efficiency, visual appeal, and user comfort—while also supporting cost-effective compliance with evolving energy mandates.

Through case studies and comparative analysis, attendees will learn how fenestration decisions influence overall envelope strategy, and how integrating these components early in design offers greater control over architectural expression, interior quality, and project budgets.
