Paul O’Neill (he/him)

Through his experience working on a large range of projects from diverse sectors, Michael has demonstrated his ability to effectively and creatively solve complex design problems and respond to the challenges of rapidly changing project landscapes by pre-empting risks and proactively seeking solutions.. With a commitment to innovation, Michael has been at the forefront of developing a number of technological advancements to help leverage the benefits of a data-rich model environment, including advanced visualisation capabilities and introducing virtual reality as a practical tool for projects.Stefanos joined Bryden Wood in 2013 having previously finished his Master’s degree in Adaptive Architecture and Computation – MSc AAC at the Bartlett School of Graduate Studies.. Before that he worked in architectural firms and technical offices in Greece, mainly involved in small residential and refurbishments projects, as well as international architectural completions.. Stefanos began his career at BWL by working on the design and implementation of a standardised “chassis” solution for a mixed-use residential development, from which he progressed to the design and planning preparation of the various plots appointed to the company..

Complete and integrated design to prove compliance at the earliest stages..However simplified, this is still construction, and the process still involves big data.

However, the digital library can mobilise this wealth of data available.No longer overwhelming, it becomes easy to manage and utilise.Designers can consider the most complex and vast strands of data and options immediately and simultaneously..

This data helps designers plan for the fullest range of complex requirements at the earliest stages, from safety to stakeholder requirements, from operations to maintenance, from re-use and net zero to wider sustainability goals..Platforms enable designers to consider, share and integrate all pertinent data in the earliest design concepts, locking this value in to the DNA of the design, delivery and operation..

Reduced handoffs for reduced risk.

Embedding pertinent data in a digital library avoids continual calculations from first principles and sequential issuing.Do we need to model some aspects in more detail?

Does the solution need to be completely different?Have we formulated the problem properly in the first place?

Working with a Design to Value approach enables this type of questioning and flexibility..Developing a solution through iteration.
