Faculty Architecture Department Building Technology Date 2011-12-31 Abstract Architectural design has become disconnected from a slow changing tradition on the one hand and from a traditional way of building on the other hand. All interventions, whether the results of necessity, planning or design have a decision making process in common, a spiral of See Want Can Do. It needs a structure of decision-making and constructing. Open Building and Lean Construction provide strategies that replace tradition by leaving options open in a construction process without material and process waste. The quality of historic cities and its buildings has been condemned by the functionalist movement and is now being rediscovered. Design can learn from convention, because ‘Convention became conventional because it works (Brand, 1994)’.This line of thought is illustrated by a strip of projects that show the desire to be inspired by the small scale qualities of the traditional.
