At the best of times, the role entails a hefty logistical lift, marshaling some 750 participants from around the world and then bringing them together on a tiny, damp, expensive island. But in the present global situation, with cultural and economic conflict seemingly at every hand, it takes a special kind of daring to stage-manage architecture’s biggest international show.

Energy poverty affects 550,000 homes in the Netherlands yet policy interventions to alleviate this issue are rare. Therefore, we test two energy coaching interventions in Amsterdam: a static information group (n = 67) which received energy efficient products and one energy-use report, and a smart information group (n = 50), which also had a display providing real-time feedback on energy-use. Results across both groups, show a 75% success rate for alleviating energy poverty. On average homes reduced monthly electricity consumption by 62 kWh (33%), gas by 41 m3 (42%), bills by €104 (53%) and percentage of income spent on energy from 10.1% to 5.3%.

This question betrays the shallowest instincts of our image-obsessed era, but it doesn’t need to go to waste.

Débats Tribunes Les urbanistes Carlo Ratti et Antoine Picon, dans une tribune au « Monde », ont démontré lors de récents travaux la capacité de l’intelligence artificielle à prédire certaines informations sur un quartier, uniquement sur la base de photographie. Un tel outil doit aider à orienter la décision politique, mais nous ne pouvons pas nous fier uniquement à lui. Temps de Lecture 3 min.
