Nabr, a Residential Development Company Co-Founded by Bjarke Ingels, Will Deploy View Smart Windows and Smart Building Platform Across All Properties
January 05 2022 - 7:00AM
View, Inc. (NASDAQ: VIEW) (“View”), the leader in smart building
technologies, today announced a partnership with home design
company Nabr to reimagine the future of urban living. SoFA One,
their first development in Silicon Valley, will set a new standard
for healthier, more experiential, greener, and smarter residential
developments.
Co-founded by world-renowned architect Bjarke Ingels and leading
development professionals Roni Bahar and Nicholas Chim, Nabr is a
first-of-its-kind “design living” company offering personalized,
sustainable urban homes that will be co-designed with each
resident. Nabr Homes will be constructed with sustainable materials
and be carbon neutral in operations. The homes will deliver
technological elegance and experience, with View providing the
converged network infrastructure and platform to enable a wide
variety of smart building and resident applications.
“Homes of the future will adapt to people and the
environment—not the other way around,” said Bjarke Ingels. “At
Nabr, we are fundamentally rethinking every aspect of residential
development—from design to ownership to operation—to benefit people
and the planet. View will play an instrumental role in this
transformation by providing a flexible technology backbone that can
be continually adapted and upgraded to improve resident experiences
and enable new features, while also conserving energy.”
All Nabr Homes will feature View Smart Windows, which adjust
automatically to provide continuous access to natural light and
outdoor views while minimizing heat and glare. The smart windows
reduce energy consumption for cooling and lighting by up to 20%,
while generating significant wellness benefits for residents. A
recent study demonstrated that people living in buildings with View
Smart Windows sleep longer and experience lower stress and anxiety
compared to those in homes with traditional windows and blinds.
Additionally, View’s cloud-connected smart building network,
View Net, will power all connected products in Nabr developments,
such as smart locks, access controls, air quality sensors, smart
thermostats, parking, and other resident and community
applications, on one unified and secure platform.
“View is excited to partner with Bjarke Ingels and Nabr to
create responsive smart homes that transform the human experience
in buildings and help address climate change,” said Dr. Rao
Mulpuri, CEO of View, Inc. “Combining Nabr’s innovative approach to
home design with our smart building platform drives customization
at scale, efficiently adding unique value to residents.”
Nabr’s first development, SoFA One in San Jose, will offer over
125 available homes, which consumers can secure with a 1% payment.
SoFA One is slated to break ground in summer 2022, with occupancy
expected by summer 2023. Nabr has additional properties planned in
Silicon Valley and across North America over the next several
years.
