Design Management for Architects, Hardback Book

Design Management for Architects Hardback

Hardback

Pre-Order

Description

This unique and established guide to the management of design and designers has been comprehensively reimagined and updated.

Written for students of architecture and early career architects, the book explores the benefits of design management from the context of managing design projects and the management of the architectural businesses.

It aligns with the need for architects to improve design management competences and business skills as set out by the ARB and the RIBA. Design Management for Architects is presented in three parts.

Part One is dedicated to explaining what design management is and what a design manager does.

Part Two focuses on the main project stages and how design management can help to identify, explore, and deliver design value for clients, architects, and society.

Part Three looks at how design management is applied within the architectural business and how it relates to successful projects and businesses.

Emphasis is on the management of designers (people), design activities (processes) and outputs (information and products).

Chapters include reflective exercises that can be addressed individually, or in small discussion groups to aid learning.

Written in an accessible and engaging manner, the book is essential reading for students studying towards qualification as an architect and for nascent architects looking to improve their management competences.
