An Introduction by Janet Tran


I am a 5-year Architectural Engineering student concentrating in mechanical/HVAC system design. My academic interest involves understanding solar heat gains of buildings. As energy becomes more of a social and political issue, I find it important to apply my expertise to contribute to finding solutions.

I wish to learn what the types of building intelligence already exists and continue to develop. I hope to use this knowledge inspire ideas in the development of an envelope that is responsive to its transient environment.

Intelligent buildings are defined as a a living structure in which logic is embedded within, so that it is able to produce output given defined inputs.
