He joined Bryden Wood in April 2021 as Head of Sustainability.. Pablo has worked on multiple UK and international projects and masterplans, providing technical advice with emphasis on the environmental and social impacts of architecture.
It allows for fast, accurate, low-carbon frames, and efficient MEP design and installation, addressing previous concerns while enhancing efficiency and sustainability.. 2.Standardisation at component level with endless configuration:.
Platform II standardises at the component level, allowing for complete freedom at the asset level, akin to IKEA's business model.This method uses simple commodities like standard steel sections and in situ concrete with highly optimised interfaces manufactured at scale.It supports endless configuration possibilities, enabling a wide range of designs and uses from a single kit of parts.
This approach mirrors strategies used in the car and consumer tech industries for mass customisation while maintaining standardisation at the base level.. 3.Diverse and inclusive supply chain with simplified assembly:.
The platform approach allows a diverse range of suppliers, including new entrants, to contribute without significant capital investment.
The simplicity of installation processes and manufacturing practices, like Poka-yoke, reduces reliance on skilled trades and enables accurate assembly using low-skilled operatives.She expresses a desire to help create a better built environment and enthuses about the fact that both of these existing projects are being released on an open source basis.
‘Sharing current thinking and best practices freely,’ she says, ‘is the best way that we can shape the industry as a whole.’.Bryden Wood’s Head of XR + Interaction, Director Elite Sher, says her focus lies in ‘combining software engineering and design, in innovative and creative applications, using cutting-edge technologies.’.
Sher is a finalist in the ‘Best Woman Software Engineer’ category of the WICE Awards and has an MSc in Adaptive Architecture and Computation from UCL, The Bartlett.It was there, she says, that she gained ‘theoretical and practical experience dealing with robotics, AI, machine learning, software engineering, and creative computation.’.
