PhD Project

PhD Project by M. Arch, B.A. in sociology. Kasper Sánchez Vibæk

The aim of the PhD study is to examine the role of system design, system thinking and system concepts within modern industrialised building. A main focus will be how this world of ideas is articulated in architecture.

System design, system thinking and system concepts are here understood as concepts relating to: Tectonic patterns, platform architecture, building standards, integrated product delivery and mass customisation.

With point of departure in various cases the project seeks to clarify to what extend new digital tools as well as contemporary construction processes and building technologies are essential for the development of architectural potential.

Other important aspects as organisation (project/cooperation/business concepts) are also within the scope of the research but plays secondary role in relation to their impact on architectural processes and results.
