From energy-optimising smart buildings to cutting-edge construction techniques like modular building and 3D printing, technological advancements are reshaping our urban landscapes and revolutionising how we design, construct, and interact with our spaces. In this inaugural episode of a special mini-series presented by the Gensler Design Podcast, in collaboration with Singapore’s Building and Construction Authority (BCA), we delve into the transformative power of technology in the built environment and how it is shaping the future, paving the way for a more connected and responsive world. Join our host, David Calkins, along with his guests, Jonathan Cheng, Chief Technology Officer of BCA, and Vignesh Kaushik, Gensler’s Regional Director of Design Technology, as they explore the profound impact of technology, and how these innovations are making our buildings more efficient and sustainable, creating more resilient, adaptable, and connected cities, and ultimately transforming our environments into smarter, more liveable spaces.
