Every building project should start with a brief. A good brief clearly explains what the client wants while providing the design team with the information and inspiration they need to create a successful building. Beyond that, the brief functions as a framework for quality management during the project. To this end, experts Juriaan van Meel and Kjersti Bjørkeng Størdal assembled this practical guide for developing high-performance briefs. Using clear language, the book succinctly explains the briefing process, different kinds of briefing techniques, and the topics that the brief should address. It also offers examples, checklists, and recommendations to apply directly in practice.
