The article defines the main criteria of office buildings intelligence, describes the stages of intelligent buildings formation, analyzes the profitability of the introduction of modern technical means (engineering systems) and architectural planning techniques in office buildings.
The current goal of increasing the energy efficiency of buildings should be implemented holistically, considering multidisciplinary measures during the design phase. For the application of innovative technologies it is crucial to know the building’s function, operational requirements, the investor’s financial scope and environmental conditions or limitations. This concept is a continuous process to attain suitable architectural and construction solutions, technical systems and efficiently manage the operation of the building.
Currently there exist a variety of techniques and technologies associated with passive construction, energy-efficient smart homes, the use of renewable energy sources. The task of modern architects is the creative and innovative search for new functional and aesthetic architectural solutions that are technically and technologically conditioned to guarantee its users a healthy and secure life in a friendly environment.
