[no german abstract available] Buildings involve both predominantly static features such as building construction, fabric, and
envelope, as well as dynamically operating environmental control systems. The optimal life-time
performance of buildings depends arguably on a well-coordinated design and configuration of these two
aspects. However, the communication and collaboration between primary building designers and building
service engineers in the design process is frequently sub-optimal. In the present contribution, we address
these issues in two ways. First, we report on the results of an inquiry into the mind-set of both primary
building designers and building systems specialists regarding building systems integration issues and their
mutual roles in the corresponding process. Second, we briefly describe a possible comprehensive workflow
process for the systemic generation and assessment of building systems configurations that are tightly
integrated with primary (spatial) building designs.
