Practicing Design-Build

The disconnect from academia to practice from design to construction is carrying the Architecture profession out to sea. Students and young professionals are further disconnected from the reality behind the representation of each line. This paper discusses a studio structured to mimic the professional environment while at the same researching through prototyping pre-fabrication, modular building, DfD (Design for Disassembly), and panelization theory including on-site/off-site construction methods.
