Introduction

How do Venn diagrams help to design a building? How do you blend form and function to make architectural spaces work? What helps to make people flow intuitively in a building? How can a design sequence inform a project’s physical construction?

In the following ten episodes, discover The nine steps of design for construction, together with an introduction, elaborated by Newtecnic. Each of the nine steps—from spatial analysis to construction strategy—is boiled down in nine illustrated slide presentations, including guidance notes and annotated sketches. For the best reading experience, we recommend to download each PDF and open it in a reader at full-screen size. Listen to the conversation to get a first idea of each of the nine steps. To go more into detail, then read the presentation.

The ten episodes are conceived as a series, and therefore it is recommended to use the provided learning material in numerical sequence. Navigate easily to a different episode by using the table of contents on the right hand side.
