How will Digital impact the workplace of the future? Digital labor (RPA) will be an increasing percentage of the total labor force for most enterprises. AI / Cognitive platforms will enhance the work that human labor still performs. Biometrics will provide facilities access and software sign-in protocols. How will this impact our workplace? How can we enhance the human experience?

Future workplace environments will be measured on cultural value, connectivity, intelligence, and fully dynamic and immersive experiences. The physical workplace will need to constantly adapt to the changing nature of work with the same agility as its digital counterpart.

In 1923 he was invited to join the De Stijl group, becoming its youngest member. After his success in Paris at the Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs, Kiesler and his wife Stefi arrived in New York in 1926, following an invitation from Jane Heap, the editor of The Little Review. Kiesler continued living and working in New York until his death, in 1965, becoming a central figure in a group of European and American artists and architects including Arshile Gorky, Marcel Duchamp, Arnold Schönberg, Fernand Léger, Max Ernst, Roberto Matta, Merce Cunningham, John Cage, and the group of artists around Leo Castelli.

In a career that spanned from the 1910s to the 1960s, the visionary themes of Kiesler’s work continue to resonate 50 years after his death, providing inspiration to subsequent generations of architects, artists, and designers. The artists included in the show are examples of the current trend of interest in artistic strategies for the production and display of work. They explore Kiesler’s focus on the reciprocal relationship between artwork and exhibition. Instead of being merely a white cube, the exhibition becomes a work of art in its own right.

DLD is co-chaired by Steffi Czerny and Yossi Vardi. Over the last decade, DLD has become a hub for launching new concepts, connecting people and setting outstanding role models – across continents, industries, fields of research, and thought patterns.

Presentation of the LISI house, Team Austria’s winning entry, is intended to supplement an individual’s basic knowledge of energy-efficient building design, passive solar concepts, construction, and prefabrication processes for new homes or renovations.

The team provided an overview of the design principles used in highly energy efficient buildings. They also explained the solutions used for improved building enclosure, high-efficiency window systems and state-of-the-art ventilation systems with heat recovery to decrease ventilation heat loss.

Ecohabit, Stevens’s entry, created a new mind-set of interaction between a house and its user, their patterns, building systems, and the regional climate. This enables the user to cohabit with the house, each learning from the other to create a more energy-efficient, sustainable life.

Buildings are the largest contributors to climate change. The research strives for innovative solutions to seal the building envelope, reduce energy consumption and mitigate a building’s carbon footprint and climate impact. Effectively weatherizing and increasing the airtightness of the building envelope can reduce the impact of the exterior climate on the building’s climate and minimize the energy required for heating and cooling.
