Sustainability by smart design
The Philippine Star
|October 17, 2025
As cities grow smarter, the real measure of progress lies in how design helps us live well within our planet's limits.
Let’s talk about how smart design is changing the way we live—starting right inside the buildings where we spend most of our time. Imagine walking into an office in Oslo, Norway, where natural light fills the space, the air is fresh thanks to advanced filtration, and the materials are chosen for their low impact on the planet. Workstations are comfortable, acoustics are balanced, and the indoor temperature adjusts automatically to outdoor conditions. The result is a workspace that feels effortless, one that keeps people focused and healthy while consuming less energy. Oslo is a global leader in sustainable smart cities, pioneering electric mobility, renewable energy, and smart waste management systems that keep the city clean and green. Here, technology quietly supports wellbeing, proving that sustainability is most powerful when it is seamless.
