Initially at Bryden Wood he worked on a range of projects across the office before focusing on the delivery of Phase 6 and 7 of the Igus Factory in Cologne.
We know it is through relationships, actions, innovations, and interactions of people; in the context of the global environment and ecosystem, where value is created or destroyed.The built environment can augment or detract from those value-creating processes, however often the buildings are just like robes, they keep the rain off and the warmth in..
In collaborative design processes, if you can achieve this kind of focus on the purpose of the work and the people who create the value; bringing together client, design disciplines, stakeholders, and experts; each with their ideas, concerns, knowledge, creativity, and humility, therein lies the opportunity for exquisite outcomes..Professor John Dyson spent more than 25 years at GlaxoSmithKline, eventually ending his career as VP, Head of Capital Strategy and Design, where he focussed on developing a long-term strategic approach to asset management..While there, he engaged Bryden Wood and together they developed the Front End Factory, a collaborative endeavour to explore how to turn purpose and strategy into the right projects – which paved the way for Design to Value.
He is committed to the betterment of lives through individual and collective endeavours.. As well as his business and pharmaceutical experience, Dyson is Professor of Human Enterprise at the University of Birmingham, focussing on project management, business strategy and collaboration.. Additionally, he is a qualified counsellor with a private practice and looks to bring the understanding of human behaviour into business and projects..

The term 'bio-revolution' refers to the recent and rapid progress in the field of life sciences, driven by significant scientific breakthroughs and advancing technologies like AI, automation, and genomics.
This revolution has led to remarkable developments, including:.To achieve these goals, a seamlessly integrated heat rejection system, tailored to the building's design and local conditions, is crucial..
While data hall requirements are established early in design, the chosen heat rejection system must adapt to local conditions, such as climate and water availability.For global data centre operators, achieving consistency across facilities offers advantages like standardised, streamlined procurement (including DfMA modules) and condensed construction timelines.
However, multiple options for heat rejection systems are crucial to ensure optimal efficiency based on local factors..This balance between consistency and site-specific optimisation is a key consideration in modern data centre design for worldwide clients..
