The IBcon Smart Building Best Practice Showcase is an annual event held at the Realcomm | IBcon conference where real estate leaders present their most innovative, technology driven commercial and corporate real estate projects. These projects demonstrate leading-edge technologies and vision for intelligent and adaptive design that is transforming the next generation of IT-enabled real estate. The Weekly News Briefing will feature a unique Showcase project each week.

Cornerblock is a commercial building on the Gold Coast, Australia. Owner and developer Base Haus designed the site to the highest standards of sustainability, energy efficiency and healthy building principles. Cornerblock is the world's first building to pursue the standards of Passivhaus, Green Star (Australia’s equivalent to LEEDS), WELL and Wired Score Platinum. The vision and goal of this design and build was to change the conversation around commercial buildings to create a healthier, holistic and highly productive work environment for the people using the space. Real world building performance is measured through data collection that has verified initial modelled results, and an open source BMS was implemented that ensures flexibility into the future for any new and emerging technologies.
