- Description
- Examining the existing management structures that are internal to architectural practice, as well as the historical formation of the discipline of architecture, this paper will investigate the relationship between collaboration, multi-disciplinary teamwork and creativity in the organization of architectural practice. Focusing on the important model of Skunk Works, and with a particular emphasis on the design practices of Diller, Scofidio + Renfro in architecture, this paper will examine the horizontal and vertical management of organizations and the opportunities for innovation and invention that are enabled within it. The paper opens onto a broader argument about the disciplinary constraints of architectural production and the enabling perspectives offered by cross-disciplinary collaboration.
