Case Study: De-Risking Specialty Architecture and Facades | Construction and Design Innovation

In this Urbanity-26 Case Study, Michael Miscamble, discusses bridging the design and delivery gap to realise public art, integrated facades, and complex architectural works. His key takeaway: bespoke facade and art design doesn't fail because it’s ambitious, but because technical risk isn’t assessed early enough in the process.
