Cristina is extending her skills for design coordination in the fields of Pharmaceuticals and Biopharma.Rosa qualified in architecture at the ETSAB, the College of Architecture of Barcelona, Polytechnic University of Catalonia.. She joined.
Fundamental questions of viability and value must be asked early and answered using data-driven modelling and schematics..Sitting with the client and asking questions forms the basis of every project that follows a Design to Value approach.
Rather than proposing a building to a client who in turn decides if they (a) like the idea and (b) can afford it, Design to Value first asks What is it that you need?What are you trying to achieve?That of course could end up being a building.
In this framework, the brief becomes a much more malleable concept.It’s a starting point.
It’s a way in which a client can express their perceived need.
Given that the brief charts the course for the remainder of the project it is critical that it is a well-articulated leading document.So, what does a plausible future look like in practice, if the government and private sector adopt this way of working?
A good illustration of this can be achieved by looking at the lifecycle of a construction project from design to assembly.We can then explore what is technically achievable with construction Platforms, as well as what this looks like in a near-future state.
All of the technologies and initiatives we’ll outline here are underpinned by, or based around, the idea of using standardised, repeatable components.This convergence of components and processes unlocks the true power of digital, data and manufacturing..
