Ruengchaipaiboon says that “if we can position the tower to draw in the natural light and wind, people will use less energy, including less air conditioning.” The WHIZDOM 101 condominium tower, for example, is strategically positioned to allow for better natural airflow and light and less heat from the sun, increasing energy efficiency. To reduce that net environmental impact, the firm uses fewer construction materials while opting for eco-friendly building materials and methods. “So we ensure that each project has minimal impact on the environment, society, and people at large.” “As developers, we’re well aware that we can create a positive or negative impact on this world,” Ruengchaipaiboon says. It calls this approach “sustainovation,” for sustainable innovation. “When come into our project, they are creating alternative energy with us,” he explains.Īccording to Ruengchaipaiboon, one of MQDC’s core values is to make every project sustainable using innovative technology. The tiles convert kinetic energy from human footsteps into low-voltage electricity, which can be stored and used to power LED lighting, wayfinding solutions, and mobile-device chargers. We call it a ‘smart community.’” One ingenious way that WHIZDOM 101 brings together smart technology and community is through the energy- and data-collecting floor tiles at the entrance to its campus. “But for us, it’s a smart city for the community-for the people. “‘Smart city’ has a lot of meanings,” Ruengchaipaiboon says. Designed with more than just humans in mind, MQDC’s green space will host an entire healthy ecosystem to draw in more birds and animals. To fill the need for a third place, the design emphasizes outdoor spaces to relax with friends, go shopping, and enjoy nature. Residents can use an app to adjust home cooling and heating, pay utilities, and even order food delivery in a single platform. The smart systems control room conditions, lighting quality, carbon-dioxide levels, and real-time energy consumption. It offers an improved outdoor microclimate through strategic use of trees and plants and an indoor controlled climate, managed through both passive and intelligent active systems. The campus, set to open in mid-2018, will contain a jogging track, bike track, library, and green space, along with a street lined with businesses and restaurants. Architecture, Engineering and ConstructionĪ 2017 Autodesk AEC Excellence Award winner for sustainable design, the WHIZDOM 101 project is geared toward younger city-dwelling professionals and emphasizes values of health, the environment, and social responsibility.Architecture, Engineering & Construction.
