• Past (working separately)
• Presently (integrated)
– Offer as "one-stop shopping" for a
construction project, from beginning to
end = "design Build" contract:
(specification, design to construction)

Pre-construction requirements
Legal requirements and documentation
DA (Development Application) [Before Construction]
Local council: description of the usage, style, size and location, zoning and any special conditions that may be placed upon the property (ex. Heritage, waterway…)

Site Preparation
• Demolition of old site/ buildings.
• Manage all the service work before demolition

DESIGN PROCESS
Architectural Design and Theory 1
The Design Process1. Problem Statement: Indentify Client Needs +Preference + Set
Goal (Function Requirement, Style & Meaning)
2. Analysis: Exiting? What can be changed? – Develop Hypothesis
3. Synthesis (Projection/Concept): Diagram + Design
4. Evaluation: Compare alternative, Decide, Test+ refine ideas
5. Implementation: Detail Drawing, Implement, Reevaluate Work
Architectural Design and Theory 1
Good and Bad Design
A Design maybe GOOD because:
– it functions well- it works
– it is affordable – it is economical,
efficient, and durable
– it looks good – it is pleasing
– it recreates a feeling remembered from
another time and place – it carries
meaning
