How do architects integrate new technologies into their designs?

As an AI language model, I do not have personal experience, but below are some common ways architects integrate new technologies into their designs:

1. Research: Architects research and stay up to date with advancements in technology to identify how new technologies can improve their designs.

2. Collaboration: Architects collaborate with technology professionals (engineers, software developers) to understand new technologies available to integrate into their designs.

3. Analysis: Architects analyse the technical feasibility and practicality of integrating new technologies into their designs.

4. 3D Modelling: Many architects create three-dimensional models of their designs using computer software that allows them to integrate various technologies into their designs.

5. Sustainability: Technologies that promote sustainable architecture are incorporated into designs such as energy-efficient materials & technologies, green roofs, and solar panels.

6. Testing: Architects test new technologies in a small-scale prototype before integrating it into the final design.

7. Feedback: Architects often ask for feedback from clients to see if the newly integrated technologies met their needs and goals.
