What opportunities does Design to Value afford the built
environment? Design to Value is a commitment to process above all
else. Well understood and applied in the manufacturing industries,
its potential is only now starting to be realised in architecture,
engineering and construction. It challenges designers to lead the
way in creating more innovative and stakeholder-centric analyses,
workflows, construction techniques and products. Through
architectural thinking, value in the built environment can be
maximised. Seeking to create deep and lasting impacts on industry,
society and the planet, Design to Value rejects architecture's
current professional services model. The design and delivery stages
of traditional procurement routes are not sustainable, and Design
to Value outlines a new path for informed design processes. Bryden
Wood, leading international expert in Modern Methods of
Construction (MMC) and the Platform approach to Design for
Manufacture and Assembly (P-DfMA), has spent the last fifteen years
developing Design to Value as part of a new framework for the
future of the design and construction industry. In this essential
book, the practice challenges architects and the wider industry to
think differently about how value is generated, enhanced and
retained in the built realm, providing a method that will improve
outcomes for architects, clients, industries and society.
Architects must bend and break habitual processes to build better
systems, better buildings and better futures. Features: Over 125
images, including photographs, sketches and diagrams Over 20
international case studies, including those from Canada, France,
India, Italy, Japan, Saudi Arabia and USA Projects from leading
practices, such as Atelier Bow-Wow, BIG, David Miller Architects,
Kieran Timberlake and Lacaton & Vassal, as well as Bryden Wood.
