Smart Buildings, the Cloud and wellness

Tom Watson

Corporate Real Estate Journal, 2017, vol. 7, issue 1, 83-99

Abstract: New building certifications such as WELL, Living Building Challenge and RESET are exploding in popularity because of their focus on occupant comfort and indoor environmental quality — areas that are largely underemphasised by traditional building certifications such as LEED and BREEAM. Typically, building performance and indoor environmental quality data has been gathered through spot testing, which suffers by not always being representative. The advent of affordable and high-quality sensors, however, paired with internet-based monitoring platforms, has revolutionised the ability of IAQ professionals to track — and improve — building performance, finally allowing buildings to talk back to us.
