Abstract Environmental contamination has been a global issued problem and each country tries to make a solution for it. In South Korea, institutional solutions like Energy Consumption Certification has been issued and proposed to solve the environmental problem. However, it has been lack of solutions which consider architectural design method itself. After industrial revolution in 20th century, the facade design of contemporary architecture has been developed based on "envelope" concept which is so different from the methods of design before. And achieving environment friendly is a global wide issue in these days. Accordingly, the substantive development for environmental problems in architectural design method, which is extension of present architectural theories are required. For this reason, this study focused on energy performance based facade design method for renovation projects which must be considered existing building situation and context. First of all, building facades of South Korean national universities which constructed through 1960"s and 1970"s are analyzed with the compositional design method. Second, the certain elements of facade"s design properties are simulated to find differences of energy performance. Through this process we can see the correlation between facade element"s design and energy performance. And not only the definite design method of energy performance based facade design but also design process that architects approach can be suggested.
