Abstract

The application of Internet of Things (IoT) technology is a significant step toward improving the sustainability and responsiveness of the built environment. The current work introduces the Adaptive and Sustainable IoT Integration Model (ASIIM), a novel framework designed to enhance the dynamic sustainability and adaptation of IoT in architecture in order to maximize its potential. Through a comprehensive review of the literature, this study analyzes the current state of IoT applications in architectural professions, highlighting the key benefits of IoT in improving building performance, occupant comfort, and energy efficiency. The ASIIM framework emerges as a comprehensive approach that encompasses key strategies for combining user interface systems, sustainability measures, IoT-enabled adaptive features, and fundamental design principles in order to promote a more responsive and sustainable architecture design. The paper identifies key obstacles to IoT integration, such as interoperability, data protection, and device sustainability, and offers collaborative ways to overcome them. The findings demonstrate the transformative potential of IoT in architecture, suggesting a future in which buildings will become dynamic systems that can adapt to the needs of both the surrounding environment and their occupants rather than static structures. This study contributes to the expanding body of knowledge on sustainable architecture by offering insights and a theoretical foundation for further study and practice in the integration of IoT technology in architectural design.
