Design-Build
Integrating Craft, Service, and Research through Applied Academic and Practice Models
«
Learning the skills of actually building landscapes—not simply designing them on paper—is a crucial new frontier in landscape architecture education and practice. Daniel Winterbottom is a pioneer of teaching design/build and the contributions within this important book provide an in-depth guide to design/build's broader implementation.
J. William Thompson, FASLA, Former Editor in Chief, Landscape ArchitectureAs Julian Raxworthy’s Overgrown illuminated the dysfunction in current industry conventions that separate design, installation, and management from each other, Daniel Winterbottom’s Design Build shows us the solutions – and how to immediately get started. Like Winterbottom himself, the book rolls up its sleeves without hesitation and sets you loose with the real stuff – trusting you to figure it out and build intuition from working with your physical media.
Whether the reader is a business owner feeling the urge toward design-build integration, a designer interested in doing more physical mock-ups and on-site work, or a teacher creating a design-build experience for students, Design Build is a useful and freeing read. Winterbottom’s “just do it” voice, combined with the detailed resources to get started tomorrow, is just what we need today. This book will help to shift the landscape industry’s collective mindset from one that is ruled by our era’s extremes of specialization and contract limitations into an approach that is more adventurous, empowered, and optimistic. Design Build shows us that when we trust our hearts and problem-solving skills, we can create better, unscripted, and more resilient works.

Design-Build provides everything you need to know about how to embark on a design-build project within a studio or professional practice setting. Design-build models have increased across academic programs worldwide, allowing students to address the real-world challenges of working in the community using a participatory design process. In practice, they offer a full partnership between the designer and builder to elevate design concepts and reduce project costs.
Written by an experienced practitioner and educator, this book offers contextual background on the development of the design-build model in pedagogy and practice, guidance from inception to conclusion for classroom and field usage, discussions on the shift to community-engaged design and inspirational examples from international case studies. Illustrated in full color throughout, it looks at structuring a design-build firm, best-practice, efficiency and the limitations of design-build as a practice model.
This is the fundamental guidebook for those interested in developing or working for a design-build professional practice, academics leading design-build programs and students interested in social and environmental justice, education, and practice through a design-build model.
