Collaborative environments can be understood to be “enabling” environments, which enable individuals and organizations to
be creative and productive. Buildings can be seen to operate as enabling environments at different yet inter-related levels:
1) as mediator between outdoor and indoor environments; 2) as provider of appropriate indoor physical settings; 3) as host
to information technology for an organization. This paper focuses on the first level, and describes a range of architectural
alternatives for improved indoor environments in commercial buildings. The paper uses illustrative examples of high-performance
buildings in the U.S. and Europe, contrasting their respective approaches to the integration of enclosure, mechanical, and
lighting systems.
