Abstract

Intelligent buildings are often concerned with the efficiencies of energy, space and health and wellbeing. The pursuit of technological prowess and measurable outcomes has led to a design epoch devoid of meaningful human connection to an intelligent building and the services that it delivers. This paper presents an application of design thinking to the built environment and assessment of the human meaning that it can influence. Furthermore, a set of mature and emerging technologies are discussed with some demonstrable interaction outcomes. The paper concludes with a critical analysis on the nuances that the processes and technology are able to craft – a magic that has seldom been achieved by existing intelligent buildings.
