Building performance lives in a complex context, which is often underestimated. This chapter reviews the building life cycle, which consists of many stages; the functions and performance of a building may change significantly over time. It discusses the many stakeholders involved in buildings, with needs and priorities that again may change. It explores the complexity of buildings in terms of systems while emphasizing that there are different ways to discern systems. Finally, it discusses the many drivers that feed the interest in building performance.
