The Tech Issue checks up on the future of real estate, architecture and design with a serial feature on the solutions harnessed by Asian cities to become ‘smarter’; a dispatch on South Korea’s highly vaunted new ‘smart cities’; and a gander at two of the region’s most decorated smart residential projects. Elsewhere in the issue, Property Report talks to Joelle Chen, former regional head of the World Green Building Council, while the ascendant economies of the Philippines and Vietnam are under scrutiny for the annual market update, plus a quick look into Hong Kong’s controversial tax breaks for landholders. Neighbourhood Watch eyes a buzzy shopping enclave in the heart of Bangkok, while Design Focus features the trailblazing portfolio of Thai design practice Department of Architecture Co.
