1770 IMPLIED in DESIGN -Gautam Shah https://lnkd.in/dbQ2FudB A design occurs with, intentioned things and surprises happening on realization. Design is interpreted after its execution, as to what is stated and implied. The deliberations, however, become confusing as the stated things are prone to interpretations, where as the implied things are largely metaphoric. Some design characteristics are universal and known, but their implications, singularly and collectively, are mysterious. Implied elements of design get revealed through connected narratives. 

Section view of a building system we are helping implement for a client. Standardization and optimization the key design intents.

Good design can be a central component to every project. Does it cost more? Yes. Is it worth it? Yes.

https://lnkd.in/gPuzrkJv wise words - "study the past", applies to all design disciplines

Assesing a design means seeing a 🐦 👁view of design comprising all the elements of design rather than seeing the silos of the design elements!-Madhurendra kumar

The controls are not shown in this rare view of the design.

A good tip to deep dive effectively on systems new to you is to find historical context of why certain decisions were made a certain way and how has the system evolved over time. Usually, some properties of the design are quite obvious but some are made obvious with historical context. And that is where design documents, even outdated, are solid gold.

THINK BIG. Tall buildings design Seminar-Workshop, Lectures, Site Visit & Round Table October, 14-15-16. Madrid 2024   THE BIG BUILD III – ARE EFFICIENT DESIGNS ENOUGH? Free for students. In English. 1 ECTS credit. Seminar will promote a dialogue in tall buildings design where Architects meets Structure  will give studentsand Academics meet Practice. The workshop will give students an approach to high-rise construction with quick exercises to develop innovative vertical structures. The objective will be to achieve the most effective and interesting model with the minimum CO2 emission The work will be carried out in teams based on materials provided by the orgqnizers.   PROGRAMME AND REGISTRATION: https://lnkd.in/ddAWK5BV   Organizers: Spanish Group IABSE - International Association for Bridge and Structural Engineering CaminosUPM Escuela de Arquitectura Universidad de Alcalá Caminos Madrid MADRID   The international design community is facing significant challenges in considering high density development in a post-Covid 19 environment. Human behavior, at least for the near term, has shifted toward a hybrid work where building occupancy in our major international cities has declined. Surplus of building stock is common.  In addition, stricter expectations, and in some regions code requirements, are becoming widespread regarding limiting carbon emissions associated with construction and long-term operations. Some believe this adds significantly to building costs, others have found ways of incorporating new ideas for only modest or no cost, recuperating initial costs over time.  Are efficient designs enough? Arguably designs for the future must consider efficiency of space and material, commercial value, reduction or even more importantly absorption of carbon throughout a building life, and unique urban and building plans that attract people back to cities.

Sketching - it is all a part of the process! As we begin the design process, the majority of our thinking is done on paper through sketching, as quick and expressive way of thinking. This allows us to communicate with each other effectively and develop key points of the design. Sketching is a tool we use throughout the whole of a project. The majority of these pieces may not be shown to the client, however it is a very important and essential part of our process. #sketch #architect #architecture #design #designsketch #sketchdesign #designer #process #designprocess #designtool #thinkingtool

The tools of our trade laid bare! 🔍✏️📐 From the humble pencil to the mighty scale, every element in an architect's arsenal plays a vital role in transforming ideas into reality. This collage captures the essence of our design process - a delicate balance of precision, creativity, and problem-solving. After all, great architecture isn't built on dreams alone, but on a foundation of careful planning, detailed drawings, and unwavering dedication. 🏗️ What's your favorite architectural tool?
