CONCEPT: SMART GREEN TOWER
Play
Asset 1 fr-01


The Q Tower has been developed as a ‘smart green’ tower with integrated systems reactive to its inhabitants. Our collaboration with Ted Selker of the Context-Aware Computing Department at MIT Media Lab is aimed towards integrating interactive systems within the tower. This cooperation has generated a wide range of innovations with the building systems; environmental, geothermal energy, smart appliances and controls, a ‘virtual’ doorman and smart delivery closets at the entrance make the tower a responsive structure where human occupation is accommodated rather than allowed, interactive rather than passive.
