Intelligent Buildings International (IBI)

Intelligent buildings and cities can be defined by the following four pillars of knowledge: People: health and well-being of individuals and communities. Balance between Low and High Technologies: discrete use of smart enabling technologies but with consideration to the use of natural passive systems. Sustainability: the design and management for net zero energy consumption, water saving, minimum waste and pollution. Connection with Nature: research and applications of biomimetics and biophilia have shown that Nature is not only vital for health and well-being but offers ways of being sustainable in the minimum use of energy and materials. Buildings and cities are planned, designed and managed for the long term by a multidisciplinary supply and demand chain of stakeholders so collaboration and effective leadership are essential. Setting long term visions and effective connectivity processes based on improving social value are key. This is true for designing new or regenerating old buildings and cities.
