With sustainability and wellbeing becoming an integral aspect in the industry, ‘Space Forward’ – The Paradigm Shift forum directed focus on futuristic approaches that unlock new and efficient solutions. The platform convened professionals from architecture, engineering and construction across sectors to explore innovations as well as design and environmental sustainability, and delved into the facets of our rapidly evolving building interiors through product innovations, their implementation and impact. While presentations by seasoned speakers enlightened the audience, two panel discussions addressed the challenges that the workspace and healthcare industries face as well as provided insights into the technologies and concepts that are the catalysts of change.
On September 27, 2019, the inaugural edition of ‘Space Forward’ commenced in Bengaluru with an opening address by Venkat Subramanian, MD, Gyproc India, who spoke about the critical aspects of latest construction methodologies and trends in the real estate sector. He presented the challenges faced by the sector currently and how it is affecting living spaces. Subramanian highlighted instances where the industry adopted occupant comfort as a key design parameter to deliver occupant centric habitat spaces. He said, “I believe faster construction technologies, better indoor comfort, safe buildings, dry construction, light-weight construction, high-rise construction, cost-efficient construction and green architecture are critical points that will shape the future.” He went on to talk about the focus essence and innovation core of Saint-Gobain, saying, “We help create great living spaces and improve daily life by combining comfort and sustainability to enhance occupant wellbeing.”
