The City of the Future
Rome, 25 September 2018 – Urban agglomerations with low environmental impact, sustainable buildings with high living comfort that allow a healthier life. This is the goal of the “The City of the Future” forum, organized by Road to Green 2020 and Active House Italia, which brought some of the main companies operating in the construction sector to Rome, with particular attention to issues related to sustainability. The event received the patronage of the Ministry of the Environment, of Rome Capital and the Department of Environmental Policies, by virtue of the contribution offered in the field of sustainable urban development.
During the debate some best practices from different countries were illustrated, on the basis of which a constructive comparison was then articulated, towards new ideas and increasingly innovative solutions.
The future is construction 0.0
Massimiliano Caruso (CEO of OWTC) presented the contents of Construction 0.0: “Digitization and artificial intelligence are transforming every sector of industry and the construction world cannot fail to take this into account. We have been hearing about smart homes for some time, but the future is cognitive home and building 0.0: zero carbon dioxide, zero consumption, zero discomfort, zero waste, zero inefficiencies. Thermal insulation, healthy air, use of natural light, optimal management of acoustics and vibro-acoustics. The construction of the houses must aim to produce a volume of waste as close as possible to 0 and, where possible, prefer recycled and recyclable materials”. These are the main contents that Massimiliano citied during the interview released within the Roman event.
