| Abstract: | The development of smart technologies, having a form of artificial intelligence, has lead to the emergence of a new architectural concept: the "intelligent building". This paper explores the dichotomy between intelligent buildings as containers of smart technologies and the potential for an intelligent architecture responsive to cultural shifts, resource issues, and human potential. It is suggested that current forms of intelligent buildings are not very smart, but that smart technologies provide the opportunity for paradigm shifts in architecture as well as in the ways we live and work. This will only be realized if the debate is expanded to fundamental cultural, global and design issues. |
