    This document describes the different types of facades used in the Commerzbank building, focusing on one facade that uses double glazed outer glass as a buffer, Venetian blinds to filter daylight and reduce glare, and aerofoil section strips to prevent exhaust air from reentering the cavity. This particular facade functions as a passive heating device in winter by using the sun's radiant energy to warm the cavity and shelter the inner skin, while in summer it improves stack effect and allows cool air to enter faster.
