In most industries of the world the pace of change is relentless.

New materials, new innovations, new techniques, new technologies –

the limit seems only to be the human imagination.

The current rate of change in first world countries is considered to be

perpetuating and fast – driven by client needs, product demand, work

practices and design expression.

In disadvantaged countries the pace of change in many ways is even

quicker.

In these countries, change is more akin to revolution than evolution.

But what about design and construction?

What is happening in our built environment?

In this modern world, is the rate of change making positive effect on

productivity?

Is productivity moving at all – and is that movement forward?

Are we still going to be laying bricks in twenty years time?

Changes in building technique may one day consider bricklaying to be an

historic and specialist activity, not dissimilar to the contemporary stone

mason.

Change is a certainty – and keeping up with it is critical.

So what might that look like in the future?

Some thoughts on the near future of design and construction.
