Publisher's Synopsis
Despite co-ordination being the principal focus of the Lead Designer's role, there is very little written about how to undertake these duties. What tools can the Lead Designer use to address the many complexities of developing a design as part of an iterative process? How can the lead designer redefine what they do using a digital world to provide profoundly different and new services? This text analyses at all of these questions, setting out how the lead eesigner can perform effectively and efficiently in the digital world, addressing clients' new whole life project requirements and new ways of constructing and assembling buildings. Managing increasing numbers of specialists in the construction process requires experience to ensure that their contributions are properly managed and produced at the right time. The book considers this challenge.
