Sensing technologies are widely used in many fields with great success and are increasingly becoming integrated into the built environment. Architects and planners are increasingly making use of the information provided by sensors but utilizing the full potential of the powerful new technology requires adjustments in how design processes are structured. It is also about finding ways to establish meaningful collaboration across disciplines that change how we approach design challenges and understand the interaction between people and the built environment. In this chapter, we discuss Evidence-Based Design processes and Human-Building Interaction through the application of sensing technologies. We also discuss two previously published research projects where sensing technologies serve as a catalyst for developing new design methodologies and innovative ways of studying the relationship between human behavior and physical space. While these projects have resulted in frameworks for integrating architectural design with mechatronics and computer science, this chapter provides another look at what has been achieved to establish open-ended questions and directions for further research.
