The ‘local’ design is then focused on ground conditions, utilities, infrastructure, placemaking, flows of people etc..
And I think we have to quickly almost leapfrog over fabrication to productisation.”.Marks says that productisation will free architects, empowering them to be “the true architects of the parameters, of the combination, of those elements.”.
Additionally, she adds, given that not everything warrants productisation, architects will be able to spend more time doing the work they came into the industry to do - the more artistic work, and the work more specifically related to the end-user experience.. Jaimie Johnston agrees there’s a massive opportunity on offer for designers with industrialised construction.. “The people who write the standards don't necessarily understand the implications; clients want the value, but don't know how to do it; product producers have no product know-how to make the bits.It should be the designers that are stitching all those bits together, understanding those standards, understanding what's available.That's a massive role.
It's a very interesting role,” he says..Still, Johnston acknowledges that the design community is currently meeting the idea of DfMA with more fear than excitement.. “The old cookie-cutter buildings get trotted out as a reason not to do DfMA,” he says.
“There’s so much to get on with, there's so much to build.
There's so much opportunity in this space that designers should be seeing this as a phenomenal space to step into and an exciting place.Since joining Bryden Wood in 2018, he has played a leading role in a wide range of front-end projects and the development of.
