EXPLORATION OF SMART BUILDINGS SHELL SYSTEMS CENTERED ON SUSTAINABILITY

Abstract

The planet is overpopulated due to extreme and paced population growth. Resources are 
almost depleted and the only solution to a global problem presents itself as sustainability. In 
order to resolve population growth and ecology centered problems, humanity explores 
contemporary fields such as bioarchitecture as mentioned long time ago by (Yeang, 2000). 
This search has brought forth new approaches such as green buildings, smart buildings and 
high rises that are automated and eco structures able to host a large quantity of people. As a 
result of the projection to maintain a valid quality of life away from pollution, noise, outside 
interference and secure with the scope of creating a protected indoor habitat, shell 
implementations are widely used in the last 20 years.
The study explores innovative materials and contemporary implementations on mile stone 
structures by presenting and evaluating the examples provided as well as exploring the 
qualities on automated smart buildings with facade shell systems focusing on sustainability. 
The article particularly centers on significant features of shell systems covering the 
structures. Examples selected for the study are prominent projects by renowned designers. 
The study provides informative highlights on these projects in order to focus and bring 
insight on a design related social and ecological argument.As the study explores smart 
building systems on sustainability features and requirements, it focuses specifically on shell 
systems that have effects on ecology and design.
