This paper is to provide some insights to professionals on the evolution of smart city, to present its concept and appropriate elements based on the author’s 40+ years of experience in international building development projects.With the oil crisis in the 1970s, the use of alternative energy sources such as solar energy and energy saving measures were explored to combat the threat of fossil fuel supply. The concept of intelligent building to improve the productivity of the occupants and energy saving was then emerged in 1980s, followed by the focusing of the built environment like green building and sustainable construction in the 1990s. Various metrics were developed by different countries for assessing green building provisions e.g. LEED in a more structure manner. Building resilience has recently become popular for abating the increasing natural disasters. The features of intelligent building, green resilient building and smart city will be illustrated by making references to developments which were designed and project managed by the author.On a more macro scale, with the rapid advancement of ICT in recent years, the concept of smart city has been advocated. The various definitions of smart city would first be depicted. Based on these definitions, the attributes of smart building and the respective features were suggested. The appraisal of the designed provisions of a mixed development project in Southeast Asia was then illustrated with suggestions on further elements to enhance its smart city characteristics.

“…These include public inclusion and participation (Becker et al, 2023 ; Bouzguenda et al, 2019 ; Castelnovo et al, 2016 ; Granier & Kudo, 2016 ; López-Quiles & Bolívar, 2018 ; Rodríguez Bolívar, 2018 ) and the design, delivery, and quality of public services as enabled by smart city technologies (Anttiroiko et al, 2014 ; Ben, 2020 ; Letaifa, 2015 ; Lulin, 2017 ; Miranda et al, 2023 ; Oschinsky et al, 2022 ; Reiche, 2020 ). Smart city governance issues receiving relatively less coverage are transparency in policymaking (Cucciniello et al, 2016 ; David et al, 2018 ; Jacobs et al, 2022 ; Lnenicka et al, 2022 ; Yadav, 2015 ), government communication to the general public (Laenens et al, 2018 ; Nadapdap et al, 2016 ), and more abstract concepts like fairness and equity in smart city development (Gibbs et al, 2013 ; Kitchin, 2019 ; Kontokosta & Hong, 2021 ; Mouton et al, 2019 ; Sarkar, 2020 ; Yigitcanlar et al, 2021 ).…”

This study analyzes public perceptions about the impact of ‘smart cities’ programs on governance and quality-of-life. With smart city scholarship focusing primarily on technical and managerial issues, political legitimacy remains relatively underexplored—particularly in non-Western contexts. Drawing on a Hong Kong-based survey of over 800 residents conducted in 2019, this study analyzes the results of probit regressions on dependent variables for governance (participation, transparency, public services, communication, and fairness) and quality-of-life (buildings, energy-environment, mobility-transportation, education, and health). Findings show more optimism about the impact of smart cities on quality-of-life than on governance. Awareness about the smart city concept associates positively with expectations about smart city benefits, but the effect is sensitive to education level and income. This study deepens understandings about the political legitimacy of smart cities, at a time when urban governments are accelerating investments in related technologies. More broadly, it adds contextual nuance to research about state-society relations and, at a practical level, supports policy recommendations to strengthen information and awareness campaigns, better articulate smart city benefits, and openly acknowledge limitations.
