1 CLOTHING and ARCHITECTURE: More in Common
CLOTHING AND ARCHITECTURE: more in common Han Xu 20107500 1 Clothing and buildings are becoming even more alike. Both have typically served the bodies that inhabit them by maintaining environmental control and by presenting a codified exterior to the world. But now there are new kinds of physical resemblances between architecture and clothing. Various kinds of textiles and weaves are now being exploited in landscape and building design. Vast landscapes are shaped by geotexiles while building structures and envelopes exploit tensile, textile strategies, enabled by new lighter and more flexible materials and by the assistance of digital simulations. As well as becoming lighter, buildings are also becoming increasingly more temporary. The lifespans of buildings are ever shorter as their inhabitants become more transient, moving frequently from city to city. Evidence of this nomadic lifestyle can be found in fashion. Clothing, the portable envelope worn on the body, now provides some of the functions formerly associated with architecture. Designers are exploring the possibilities of integrated lights in clothes, pockets to carry portable electronic devices as well as soft electronic devices that are embedded in technical fabrics. Through other technological advances in textiles, specialized suits offer climatic control in very extreme environments. Yet other designers are integrating structure into clothing or even reviving the primitive model of a portable textile shelter. Many designers switch between fashion and architecture. Even the manufacturing processes for clothing and architecture can now be very much alike as new, highly sophisticated weaving robots automize the manufacturing process for articles of fashion or for components of buildings. In Gottfried Semper’s 1860 Style in the Technical and Tectonic Arts, we find a creation myth for today’s textile buildings and architectural suits. -

Design Leadership Skills Questioning the Difference Between Design Leadership and Generic Leadership in SME Manufacturing Organisations
Design leadership skills Questioning the difference between design leadership and generic leadership in SME manufacturing organisations Author: Jennifer Alnelind & Cecilia Alvén Supervisor: Olle Duhlin Examiner: Lars Lindkvist Date: Spring 14 Subject: Thesis Level: Master (60hp) Course code: 4FE66E Abstract Title: Design leadership skills - Questioning the difference between design leadership and generic leadership in SME manufacturing organisations Authors: Jennifer Alnelind & Cecilia Alvén Supervisor: Olle Duhlin Examiner: Lars Lindkvist Course: 4FE66E, Företagsekonomi IV, examensarbete, 15 hp Purpose: The purpose of this study was to describe and develop what set of skills a design leader require and if these differentiate them from the generic leader in SME organisations. Theory: The themes and concepts we have based the research on is first and foremost design leadership and skills. We have utilised studies by for example: Miller and Moultrie (2013), Joziasse (2011), Turner (2013) and Mumford et al. (2007) in order to develop an extensive theoretical framework. Methodology: We have approach this research in a deductive and qualitative manner through a descriptive and somewhat exploratory design. We have conducted six semi-structured interviews with leaders at manufacturing SME organisations in ‘Småland’. Conclusion: Through this research we have established a set of skills that a design leader requires in manufacturing SME organisations. In conclusion we found that the design leader requires well developed generic leadership skills in form of; learn/adapt, speak (convey information), listen (attentive), motivate, inspire, analyse, manage, problem solve, project manage, observe, plan and apprise as well as design specific skills; draw, synthesize, envision-imagine-visualise, edit, design and employ technology. We also identified the difference between the design leader and generic leader, whereby we found a slight difference, even though most generic leaders interviewed utilise aspects of design leadership due to positions interlinking. -
BIM for Interior Design
REVIT® BUILDING INFORMATION MODELING BIM for Interior Design Discussions about BIM (building information modeling) typically focus on the design of the outside of the building and the many benefits BIM brings to that aspect of architectural design. We read about massing models and curtain walls, expressive roof forms, and detailed wall sections. But how is BIM being applied to the design of the inside of the building - the finishes, the fixtures, the area requirements, the furniture schedules? This paper examines the use of Revit® Architecture software for the interior design of a building. Interior Advantages Regardless of the specialization of the interior design group - corporate, hospitality, retail, etc. - interior designers cite several key advantages of BIM: The speed and ease of creating an interior design model, coupled with the ability to visualize that design. The ability to capture and manage the design as multiple options within a single model - options that may vary anything from space layout to material selections. The richness and reliability of the data embodied within the building information model. This is fundamental for early tasks such as schematic space planning and master scheduling, the accuracy of detailed design activities like quantification and costing, and finally for the production of well-coordinated documentation. Creating the Design Model Architects and designers working on the interiors of a building sometimes start with the building shell CAD files from their own firm or another firm. But in many cases, the building shell might pre-date the interiors project by many years with only paper documentation to rely on. Because it's so easy to create a 3D model with a BIM solution like Revit Architecture, these designers will sometimes quickly model the relevant portions of the building exterior off the 2D or paper floor plans as a way of starting their project. -

It begins with an idea and culminates in a structure that may serve its occupants for several decades, even centuries. Like the manufacturing of products, building construction requires an ordered and planned assembly of materials. It is, however, far more complicated than product manufacturing. Buildings are assembled outdoors by a large number of diverse constructors and artisans on all types of sites and are subject to all kinds of weather conditions. Additionally, even a modest-sized building must satisfy many performance criteria and legal constraints, requires an immense variety of materials, and involves a large network of design and production firms. Building construction is further complicated by the fact that no two buildings are identical; each one must be custom built to serve a unique function and respond to its specific context and the preferences of its owner, user, and occupant. -

FROMERt & MARK P. MCKENNAtt Design stands out among intellectualproperty subject matter in terms of the extent of overlapping protection available. Different forms of intellectual property usually protect different aspects of a product. In the design context, however, precisely the same features are often subject to design patent, trademark, and copyright protection-andparties commonly claim more than one of those forms. Yet, as we show, the claiming regimes of these threeforms of design protection differ in significant ways: the timing of claims; claimformat (particularlywhether the claims are visual or verbal); the multiplicity of claims (whether and how one can make multiple claims to the same design); and the level of abstractionat which parties claim rights. These methodological differences have significant effects on the operation of each individual regime. All of the claiming regimes have significant shortcomings, particularly in terms of the quality of notice the claims provide to third parties about their scope. That notice problem is worsened, as we argue, by the frequent cumulation of rights t Professor of Law, New York University School of Law; Co-Director, Engelberg Center on Innovation Law & Policy.
