This year, architecture@15 features projects located in modern cities in various parts of AsiaBangladesh; China; East Timor; Hong Kong; India;
Indonesia; Malaysia; Myanmar; Philippines; Singapore; Thailand; UAE and Vietnam. Set to start construction in 2015, they will help define the
modern city of Asia in the near future.
Each profile includes project description, images and summary information. These projects are selected each year from more than 100,000 future
projects reported by BCI Asia and BCI Australia researchers. In compiling information on these projects, BCI researchers interview half a million
architects, developers, engineers and contractors.
Besides projects, architecture@15 also reviews building technologies in a dedicated section called technologies@15 that enable architecture
to evolve rapidly, providing a reference guide of innovative and intelligent solutions for architects, engineers and developers. Each review is
presented in an easy-to-read format describing the products and/or services of a single leading manufacturer in each field.

WORKPLACE
WELLNESS
by Y-Jean Mun-Delsalle
A s we spend most of our waking hours at the office, it only makes sense that
where we work should not have a negative impact on our health, but instead
display a positive influence, for healthy employees make for happy employees.
While the aspect of health is often addressed by means of technology, for
example a building system using cleaner air, insulating against noise pollution
and zero VOCs, the concept of wellness also refers to a broader notion of
how occupants feel, which addresses questions like do they have views of
the external natural landscape, are they comfortable with the lighting and
temperature, is there natural lighting or ventilation and how conducive is the
environment to social interaction?
Two Australian office projects, Medibank Place in Melbourne and Boomworks
in Sydney, focus on health and wellness for employees beyond Green rating
certifications. The first is a new building, while the second is a fit-out
and refurbishment. Both advocate Green design with metrics of certified
performance; critically they also strive to define workplaces that actually make
employees feel better.

taff costs, including salaries and benefits, typically account for about 90
percent of a business operating costs. It follows that the productivity of staff, or
anything that impacts their ability to be productive should be a major concern for
any organisation. Research suggests that by making even small improvements to
factors such as productivity, health and well-being, businesses can experience
greater financial benefits than they would from more efficient resource use in
building operations.

energy
One of the key objectives of a Green building should be about reducing its energy consumption
for water, light, heat, air-conditioners, etc.
In the next issue, FuturArc will take a look at energy resources and related technologies behind
Green buildings on a systems-based approach. If you have projects to nominate, please send an
email with a brief profile and photos to [email protected] by end of July 2015. We will notify you
if your project is shortlisted for publication. Please note that the selection of projects is subject to
editorial discretion.
