"Frozen Music" Video Series: an International Tour of Exceptional Buildings and Architects
Today more than ever, architects are facing high expectations for the design, function and performance of a project. Careful building design takes the regional influences of climate, materials, and cultural building traditions into account. These are all ways to lower the ecological footprint, but what can architects do to further enhance building performance? That is an exciting element to explore, as today's digital technologies are implemented in buildings in every region of the world. During this unprecedented era of social distancing and working from home, ABB with Katrin Förster have launched a video series called “Frozen Music” to give architects a platform to both see and share successful building design around the globe.
Today more than ever, architects are facing high expectations for the design, function, and performance of their buildings. The challenge is to guarantee the comfort of inhabitants, while keeping sustainability at the forefront. The ability to implement secure technology that offers control (and reduction) of the energy consumption and overall carbon footprint of a building can help designers achieve both comfort and sustainability.
