The modern building envelope design focuses on building interior comfort optimization rather than just aesthetics. Modern building facades play major roles in regulating natural heat generated through solar radiation, thereby moderating the extents of thermal transfer into building. This function primarily promotes energy conservation, therefore making effective building façade designs an energy efficient option in sustainable building designs. This paper presents the option of a Double-skin climate-adaptive (DSCAF) façade (wall) design that will function like a barrier used to trap excessive heat radiated through the building walls in hot climates and utilizes the double layer to preserve the indoor cool conditions. A review of the evolution of modern active and intelligent building façades employed by designers over the years revealed the climate responsive concepts associated with these designs. Finally, the study presented an active design tectonics for a climate adaptive double skin façade (DSF) design. In order to identify the thermal control properties of this façade design, a simulation was conducted on the model using Phoenix-VR application. This revealed that the design reduced the thermal impact on the building façade by a significant margin as identified in the interior air temperature and internal façade values.
