It is described a prototype residential unit ensuring comfortable interior conditions at minimum energy cost through the interaction of three autonomous architectures: a) a spatial arrangement of tectonic elements; b) an assembly of sustainable material components; and c) a cognitive architecture of control systems. The prototype is an experiment on sustainability and connectivity, integrated within the context of a city that is envisioned as an energy efficient grid. This paper offers insight into the dynamic interactions between the material elements of the physical architecture, and the attributes and events of the control architecture that are associated with them
