ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Fasad

A fasad, or façade, is like the face of a building. Just like how your face shows what you look like to others, a fasad shows what a building looks like to people who see it from the outside. Fasads can be made of different materials, like bricks, stones or glass, and they often have pretty designs or patterns on them. Fasads help protect the building from bad weather and keep the people inside safe and cozy. So, the next time you see a building, try to imagine what its fasad might look like, and you'll know what the building looks like from the outside!
