Welcome to the BBFH podcast. More often than not, when we think about health and wellness, our thoughts turn to diet and exercise. However, most of us spend two-thirds or more of our day inside buildings. The quality of the environment in those buildings has been proven to have a dramatic impact on our well being and our productivity, both at work and at home. There is little discussion about this in the mainstream media. It’s time to start a public dialogue about how we are affected by the buildings where we live, work and play.

Ripping Out the Wires: Why Low Voltage Might Be the Smartest—and Most Dangerous—Idea in Building Design – Ep 110 with Jim Baldwin

This week on Better Buildings for Humans, Joe Menchefski plugs into the future with Jim Baldwin, founder of Domatic—a company rethinking the very wiring of our buildings. With a background in tech giants like Apple and Microsoft, Jim brings a fresh, user-first mindset to building automation. In this episode, he breaks down how Domatic is creating the "USB for buildings"—a smart, low-voltage system that unifies power and data to make buildings healthier, smarter, and more energy-efficient. From predictive energy modeling using neural nets to real-time air quality monitoring, Jim explains how simplifying tech in buildings can unlock massive sustainability gains without sacrificing occupant comfort. Whether you're retrofitting an office or designing a next-gen apartment block, Jim’s insights will change how you think about what's behind your walls.
