This book advocates for a fundamental shift in how we design and build architecture, placing construction knowledge at the core of the design process. It explores how a deeper understanding of materials, labor, and the environment can yield architecture better attuned to its environmental, social, and cultural impacts. Through an examination of thirty case studies spanning eighteen countries, the book illustrates the integration of these crucial considerations into contemporary design practices. Each case study provides an in-depth look behind the scenes, revealing the design logic, manufacturing processes, and on-site construction strategies through documentation, drawings, and photographs. By promoting an approach that focuses on a holistic understanding of the entire design process-from conception to execution-this book offers valuable insights into key concepts such as embodied versus operational energy, lifecycle, durability, longevity, constructability, precision, and tolerance. For architects and students alike, it offers a framework for rethinking the relationship between design and making by addressing the urgent demands of our time.
