Description

The Design-Build Studio examines sixteen international community-driven design-build case studies through process and product, with preceding chapters on community involvement, digital and handcraft methodologies, and a graphic Time Map.

Together, these projects serve as a field guide to the current trends in academic design-build studios, providing a window into the different processes and methodologies being taught and realised today.

Design-build supports the idea that building, making, and designing are intrinsic to each other: knowledge of one strengthens and informs the expression of the other. Hands-on learning through the act of building what you design translates theories and ideas into real-world experience.

The work chronicled in this book reveals how this type of applied knowledge grounds us in the physicality of the world in which we live.
