La ville de demain sera plus sobre, plus verte et plus humaine. Une utopie, la « smart city » ? Non ; aujourd'hui, écoquartiers et bâtiments biomimétiques comme Lyon Confluence ou les tours de l'architecte Vincent Callebaut sortent de terre partout dans le monde. La data, nouveau combustible de la ville intelligente, se situe au cœur de ces ambitieuses réalisations. Comment se co-construisent ces nouvelles cités ? Peuvent-elles faire école ?
En fonction de ses ressources, de ses spécificités culturelles et des défis qui l’attendent, chaque ville possède sa propre manière de devenir intelligente...
What does it really mean to make a city smart? Qualcomm’s Kiva Allgood explains how tomorrow’s smart cities will share data between governmental department
Glazing Europe’s tallest tower included glazing the façade with two skins, formed of double-glazing units incorporating three different glass components.
Saint-Gobain’s COOL-LITE and PLANITHERM were assembled by Glassolutions’ Eckelt Glas site (Austria) for the building’s façades and to provide its occupants with maximum year-round comfort. The SGG COOL-LITE® SKN 076 II glass combines solar control, high light transmission with a neutral appearance.
The solar control, heat reflective glass, SGG COOL-LITE ST Bright Silver offers extreme transparency and an aesthetic, neutral reflection.
The low-e PLANITHERM ONE II glass panes on SGG DIAMANT deliver the market’s best energy-efficiency performance, allowing maximum light penetration and keeping the interiors warm.
Lakhta Center has made a conscious effort to embrace a number of innovative energy-saving technologies in its design, significant among which is the glazing solution from Saint-Gobain.
Le ministère se félicite de la présence d'acteurs français tout au long de la chaîne de valeur, avec certaines groupes d'envergure internationale (Saint-Gobain, Lafarge, Vicat, Schneider Electric, Dalkia, Cofely, Legrand, Atlantic, Aldes) et une bonne complémentarité entre les industriels et les institutionnels (CSTB, Cetiat, Ifsttar). Il loue "la reconnaissance mondiale des ingénieurs et architectes français" et soutient que le contexte réglementaire et sociétal est "propice au développement technologique"
À une époque où émergent des villes-états influentes, et que la course aux plus hautes tours est lancée, Tokyo entend bien garder sa place de cité influente et d’acteur économique mondial majeur. Or, pour s’affirmer sur la scène internationale, il faut savoir se réinventer. Le bureau d’architecte Kohn Pedersen Fox Associates a donc imaginé le Tokyo de demain, entre rêves de grandeur et défis techniques.
Over the past 20 years, green construction has gone from a niche enterprise to a major driver of new business. But in 2016, erecting sustainable, profitable green buildings will no longer be enough to stand out. Buildings will also be expected to directly contribute to the health and wellbeing of the people who live, work and learn inside them. For buildings, healthy will become the new green.
Mers et océans offrent des espaces inouïs pour l’extension urbaine, à l’heure où la montée des eaux due au réchauffement menace des dizaines de cités côtières. Dans des projets futuristes – et controversés –, des architectes imaginent même développer des villes autonomes sur les flots, au large. Autant de sujets qui ont été évoqués lors de la première Conférence internationale sur l’architecture amphibie, qui s'est tenue à Bangkok.
Plans have been revealed today in Dubai for the world’s first fully functional 3D printed building, an ambitious move that will establish the UAE’s position as the global centre of technology in architecture construction and design.
Moving quickly into the 21st century, it becomes apparent that a city’s overall livability will have to enter a new dimension in order to keep pace with growing populations and finite resources. Technological innovation coupled with smart connectivity that leverages the growing Internet of Things, can solve actual pain points related to traffic congestion, waste/pollution management and energy efficiency that will take city livability to new levels.
An unprecedented mobilisation of 25 worldwide business networks representing over 6.5 million companies from more than 130 countries pledged today to lead the global transition to a low-carbon, climate resilient economy. At the Business & Climate Summit, there was a recognition that leading businesses are already taking action to build the prosperous, lowcarbon economy of the future. In all sectors, business has developed solutions, continues to innovate and is preparing to accelerate the scale and pace of deployment.
« La ville intelligente connecte les différents acteurs du tissu urbain : citoyens, transports, pouvoirs publics, entreprises, associations, citoyens, médias…. En recueillant les données de chaque habitant et en les partageant, la vie quotidienne gagne en confort, en efficacité et en sobriété. Cette ville intelligente existe déjà et Saint-Gobain y prend toute sa part."
La tour Montparnasse deviendrait un «Central Park vertical», selon les mots de l’architecte à l’origine du projet «Paris Smart City 2050», qui prend en compte les contraintes futures de la ville de Paris.
India has embarked on an ambitious quest to create 100 Smart Cities. A vast number of existing cities will need to be re-imagined and converted into Smart Cities. The challenges in the process of doing so are unique. Karin Wanngard, Mayor of Stockholm, deliberates on how to transform an old city into a Smart City? the Stockholm way.
Proposals such as Vincent Callebaut's "Hydrogenase" have always been science fiction as much as they are architecture - but with Arx Pax's MFA technology, is it time to think more carefully about how to design levitating buildings? Image Courtesy of Vincent Callebaut Architectures.
