Reduce, rationalise, standardise and optimise the design, approval, manufacture, assembly and operation processes, in order to.
The software we use in the construction industry is designed (as for every industry) to appeal to a wide audience and to deliver functionality to the largest number of users.This means it will often support mainstream design behaviours but it won’t push the boundaries of the possible.
It is not the place to find the future of design.It stabilises recent or novel design approaches, but it doesn’t help develop new ones.Generalised software designed for generalised users produces generalised processes, activities and results.. There’s a place for that approach to automating construction, but it’s not why we’re here.
We want to create the change our industry needs – and do it from within our industry.We don’t want to be disrupted by big tech, caught out like the music industry was by iTunes….
Architects are important, but haven’t always been very good at making it obvious how important we are, and why.
Over the last decades, the profession has been fragmented and whittled away – losing influence and impact and getting tied up in bureaucratic systems and approaches that have more to do with easing procurement and dispersing risk than with getting the best results for clients.. We believe that the role of the architect is – or should be – pivotal to the success of built environment projects.environment utilised at Bryden Wood.
Through his experience working on a large range of projects from diverse sectors, Michael has demonstrated his ability to effectively and creatively solve complex design problems and respond to the challenges of rapidly changing project landscapes by pre-empting risks and proactively seeking solutions.. With a commitment to innovation, Michael has been at the forefront of developing a number of technological advancements to help leverage the benefits of a data-rich model environment, including advanced visualisation capabilities and introducing virtual reality as a practical tool for projects.Stefanos joined Bryden Wood in 2013 having previously finished his Master’s degree in Adaptive Architecture and Computation – MSc AAC at the Bartlett School of Graduate Studies.. Before that he worked in architectural firms and technical offices in Greece, mainly involved in small residential and refurbishments projects, as well as international architectural completions.. Stefanos began his career at BWL by working on the design and implementation of a standardised “chassis” solution for a mixed-use residential development, from which he progressed to the design and planning preparation of the various plots appointed to the company..Since then he has worked in various projects occupying different roles that have enabled him to develop and grow as a professional.
Notable roles include his involvement with GSK ICentre concept design and Blasé beach House concept and details design, the latter of which placed Stefanos in the position of Design Lead where his collaborative skills were integral to ensuring the smooth running of the scheme via the combined working of a multi-disciplinary team..Following this experience Stefanos became involved in the design, development and delivery of the T3 Temporary FCC at Heathrow Airport; a challenging facility that was designed and built in less than a year, with short deadlines and many restrictions.
