  This positional paper outlines our vision of 'adaptive architecture', which
involves the integration of robotic technology to physically change an
architectural space in supporting the changing needs of its occupants, in
response to the CHI'24 workshop "HabiTech - Inhabiting Buildings, Data &
Technology" call on "How do new technologies enable and empower the inhabitants
of multi-occupancy buildings?". Specifically, while adaptive architecture holds
promise for enhancing occupant satisfaction, comfort, and overall health and
well-being, there remains a range of research challenges of (1) how it can
effectively support individual occupants, while (2) mediating the conflicting
needs of collocated others, and (3) integrating meaningfully into the
sociocultural characteristics of their building community.
