Notable roles include his involvement with GSK ICentre concept design and Blasé beach House concept and details design, the latter of which placed Stefanos in the position of Design Lead where his collaborative skills were integral to ensuring the smooth running of the scheme via the combined working of a multi-disciplinary team..

The digital library establishes a digitised quality assurance process that means we can trace and record critical data from design through to operation..Automated design configuration enables speedier up-front design.

The data library can then be embedded in configurators: digital web-based apps/software, which apply the digital data to automatically generate anything from a schedule of room types, to a full, digital asset model..This would revolutionise the speed with which up front design could be achieved, overcoming the challenge to investors presented by the need for more upfront design..Primary School Configurator.

, developed by Bryden Wood, with Innovate UK funding is an open source, user-friendly web-based app, which configures a primary school building on a specific site in line with DfE requirements.This reduces a process that normally takes weeks, to a matter of minutes.

A similar configurator, called.

, has been created by Bryden Wood and Cast with the Mayor of London for housing and we see examples from outside the industry such as the Ikea 3D Kitchen Planner..New-build facility costs can be avoided by upgrading existing plants instead.

There are many possible options for any business challenge and with digital simulations we can rapidly consider them and focus our attention on the best-performing ones.. DATA ANALYSIS DELIVERS A BETTER BUILT ENVIRONMENT.This approach is applicable not just to complex factories but to projects ranging from schools to offices, prisons, airports and others.

At Bryden Wood we use data analytics to deliver best-in-class designs in many building sectors.Our work in healthcare has recently culminated in the completion of the Circle Birmingham hospital which delivered a state-of-the-art new facility for 30% less cost than comparable hospitals.. Data analytics is one key reason we can achieve such major cost advantages on projects delivered in this way.
