p. 115.6facade = face or outward appearance
Definition:
face or outward appearance -- often referring to something that is not genuine
Often referring to a false face presented by a person. Buildings often have false facades; e.g., a building might have a layer of 1/4" brick, but not really be a brick building. This is why the term is used for the false appearance a person presents.
