Designing Place Software
Administrators and project managers may not understand the holistic nature of design and tend to introduce designers too late. Research in the USA indicates that the success of a place is 80% due to its management and only 20% to its design. Yet project managers often fail to allocate sufficient resources to the design of the management of public places. This has caused failures, not of design but of briefing. The presentation will indicate how design can be embedded much earlier into projects and indicate successful outcomes of such processes.
David Miller
Aligning a small practice with a BIM workflow
This presentation will describe the evolution of a small architecture practice into a BIM centric enterprise model as a response to the UK government’s mandation of Level 2 BIM by 2016. The presentation will be in two parts. Firstly exploring why change was necessary, the process undertaken, and the outcomes for the practice. The second part will illustrate by example the productivity and efficiency gains.
