Staying one step ahead
Beyond construction and maintenance, the way we maintain our buildings is also set to undergo a significant evolution, enabled by advent and progression of digital technology.
Like anything that is smart or intelligent, Buildings of the Future have a nervous system. These embedded digital ‘organs’ capture and monitor consumption and usage in order to optimise building performance over the long haul.
It’s a far more fascinating venture that demands an equal amount of learning and unlearning from stakeholders. Thanks to the Internet of Things (IoT) and blockchain, Buildings of the Future are becoming living canvases that, through ongoing and real-time feedback, keep speaking to us about how we can do design better, smarter, safer.
