Smart Building Design

Description

Smart Building Design. Conception, Planning, Realization, and Operation

• Systematic design concept for smart building technology
• Illustrates the breadth of digital applications and the required cooperation between trades
• Overview of the most popular system solutions

How can smart technology open up new design opportunities – for the design, the execution, and the operation of buildings and for the digitalization of construction?
A hitherto unusual conception of the building as a cybernetic architectural system forms the basis of this integrated design approach. The authors – architects and engineers with extensive design experience – contribute an overview of current technical components of automation and communication systems, as well as a summary of relevant laws, standards, and guidelines.
Six example projects demonstrate completed applications at different scales, from a single-family residence to office buildings, and through to the Elbphilharmonie concert hall – amply illustrated in text, drawings, and photos.
