ANALYSIS OF THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE SMART LIVING CONCEPT IN PANORAMIC APARTMENTS, BANDUNG

Abstract

Vertical housing has become an important solution in urban land conditions that are increasingly limited. Therefore, vertical housing options can serve as a living solution. Along with the development of the times, digitalization has also begun to permeate residential environments. One of them is the emergence of the smart living concept in apartment environments. This research discusses further about apartments and the implementation of the smart living concept, particularly at Panoramic Apartment, Bandung City. Research and data collection were carried out using qualitative methods. The research team conducted literature reviews, descriptive techniques, direct observations, and direct surveys at the research site to then conduct a research study. Based on the study above, it can be understood that the concept of smart living is not only about the application of technology in high-rise buildings, but also includes aspects of building design and maintenance. From the above, it can be concluded that smart living, if it is to be applied to apartment buildings in the future, needs to start from determining the location and design, using BIM simulation of technology efficiency on design process, the use of AI technology which be planned on management of energy. Then, equally important is the improvement of apartment management, this is crucial for achieving supervision and management of comfort, quality of public facilities, and efficiency of technology use, as well as disaster safety. Essentially from all of above, the concept of smart living in design of building must meet the principles of: (1) Comfortability, (2) Safety, and (3) Efficiency and effectiveness.
