Architecture and the Smart City (Paperback): Sergio M. Figueiredo, Sukanya Krishnamurthy, Torsten Schroeder Architecture and the Smart City (Paperback)

Increasingly the world around us is becoming 'smart.' From smart meters to smart production, from smart surfaces to smart grids, from smart phones to smart citizens. 'Smart' has become the catch-all term to indicate the advent of a charged technological shift that has been propelled by the promise of safer, more convenient and more efficient forms of living. Most architects, designers, planners and politicians seem to agree that the smart transition of cities and buildings is in full swing and inevitable. However, beyond comfort, safety and efficiency, how can 'smart design and technologies' assist to address current and future challenges of architecture and urbanism? Architecture and the Smart City provides an architectural perspective on the emergence of the smart city and offers a wide collection of resources for developing a better understanding of how smart architecture, smart cities and smart systems in the built environment are discussed, designed and materialized. It brings together a range of international thinkers and practitioners to discuss smart systems through four thematic sections: 'Histories and Futures', 'Agency and Control', 'Materialities and Spaces' and 'Networks and Nodes'. Combined, these four thematic sections provide different perspectives into some of the most pressing issues with smart systems in the built environment. The book tackles questions related to the future of architecture and urbanism, lessons learned from global case studies and challenges related to interdisciplinary research, and critically examines what the future of buildings and cities will look like.

"Du bist immer so empfindlich!" Ein Satz, den hochsensible Menschen oft hoeren. Die heutige Arbeitswelt ist mehr denn je durch Reizuberflutung gekennzeichnet und VUCA scheint der naturliche Feind hochsensibler Menschen zu sein. Volatilitat, Unsicherheit, Komplexitat und Ambiguitat verstarken sich noch einmal, wenn sie auf besonders sensitive Menschen treffen. Oder ist genau das Gegenteil der Fall? Haben Menschen mit einem besonderen Gespur fur den Moment, mit der Antenne fur das Unbekannte besonders gute Chancen in einer Arbeitswelt, in der nichts mehr ist, wie es einmal war, und die gepragt ist von kontinuierlichem Wandel? Torsten Schroeder geht dieser Frage nach und gibt einen UEberblick uber das immer noch unscharf definierte Phanomen der Hochsensibilitat (und seiner "False Friends" ADHS, Impostor-Syndrom, Hochbegabung). Praxisbeispiele reflektieren Erfahrungen aus Berufsalltag, Sport und Coaching.
