The University of Suffolk Smart House project is a collaborative research facility that aims to demonstrate the regional capacity for the design, build and occupation of sustainable homes. The building is easy to maintain and comfortable, offering a vision for a sustainable way of life that enhances lifestyles and acts as a template for future domestic homes.

The Smart House is a living laboratory and demonstrator by the University of Suffolk (UoS) and a range of third-party innovation partners. Current research in the health innovation arena using the Smart House living lab include collaboration with BT, local services, and other universities, with a broad focus on assisted living and supporting independence at home.

The Smart House offers short-range and long-range network solutions to connect hardware and devices, and a data curation solution enabling accumulation of data for future interrogation. As an innovative domestic living lab, the Smart House provides a unique living lab venue to research and trial technology and interactions supporting healthy living.

Meet the leading academics from the University of Suffolk’s Suffolk Sustainability Institute - such as Professor Darryl Newport, Dr Hannah Steventon and Dr Alison Pooley - along with some of the apprentices who work closely with the team.
