analysis suggests that 70% of public sector buildings could be delivered using the same set of components, highlighting the transformative potential of Platform II across the construction industry..
Our approach is to dismantle a process rigorously in order to analyse and optimise every single component, and then combine these into a repeatable, scalable solution.Digital tools enable us to experiment with a huge number of permutations of components; introducing variables, then measuring, iterating, and refining.
This approach ensures maximum flexibility with significant cost and time benefits.Together with Martin Wood, Mark founded Bryden Wood Associates in February 1995.. From 1984-95 Mark had worked with Nicholas Grimshaw's on a collection of the UK’s most influential buildings, a number having become iconic examples of the ‘Hi-tech’ movement.The 90’s saw significant change in the design and construction industry with the widespread adoption of computer aided design and methods of construction that are now commonplace..Since 1995, Bryden Wood have sought to maintain and enhance the aspects of the architecture profession that the partners perceived as under threat from commercial pressures, and the emasculation of the profession’s status from overall design led to an aesthetic and often ‘style’ based service.
They sought to exemplify the intimate understanding of the construction process, material and detailing whilst enhancing the strategic qualities that were historically essential in the architect’s role as lead consultant.Mark adjusted his focus away from developing a ‘brand-defining’ portfolio of work - that may sometimes be at the expense of the client - to a primary concern in providing the optimum solution.. Bryden Wood has evolved into a 300+ strong.
, engineering and integrated design company whose activities span from analysis and business strategy through architecture and engineering.
We have become the UK leaders in.Over millions of years of evolution although much has changed, they have not changed in size, because the size and structure represent a sweet spot for their function.
You could say that we have learned similarly in the building of batteries; replicating and combining small cells works much better than trying to create large cells.The body itself carries on the advantages of scaling.
An organ contains some hundred billion cells and the body is made up of about 100 organs and limbs..If we look more broadly into the living world, we can see that size and scale are really important factors in function, efficiency, and survival.
