Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a thought-provoking analysis of the future of architectural practice in 1918 and beyond. The author considers how the profession had been structured and operated up until that point, with one architect coordinating the services of multiple separate trades. The author questions this system and asks whether other arrangements might be preferable, such as a single 'supervisor' controlling all aspects of a project or the architect expanding their organization to include construction management. They also consider the potential impact of new cost-plus contracting methods, where financial risk is shifted from the contractor to the owner. The author contends that sweeping revisions to the code of architectural ethics may be needed to accommodate these changing conditions.
