In something as complex as the built environment, how does one design and engineer the right outcome? Is there a way to account for all the factors impinging on the final product and guide the creative process to where it needs to go? Anton Germishuizen and J. Rossi would say yes — the two are part of a team at Burt Hill Architects responsible for developing and applying ten critical, interconnected drivers, or metrics, that turn the often subjective architecture and engineering process into an analytical, measurable one, without making design prescriptive. In 10 Metrics, using projects on which Burt Hill's metrics approach has been successfully implemented, readers learn how this evidence-based system came about and how it's being used to ensure responsive design and quantifiable value, all while managing risk.

10 Metrics: Toward an Integrated Approach on Design
Well, I haven't actually finished this yet. 12 more pages, so any week now. Yeah, I love to read Wigley reading Derrida reading Heidegger reading Kant as much as the next guy...well, no i don't (and neither does he). I suspect for you acidic post-structuralist types, this is great stuff. It seems well conceived and realized, with jazzy little title names ("Doing the Twist"). i will share a quote from one of the few lines that does not include someone else's quote (from my favorite chapter "Spaced Out," on page 69 - also my favorite), Wigley writes, "Inasmuch as space is not a static receptacle of inscriptions but an effect of ongoing inscription, what the tradition attempts to subordinate is not so much space as the gesture of inscription that produces space." I could probably figure out whatever it is that he's talking about, but when "inscription" turns up more than once in any given sentence then all bets are off. I'm going to read a damn baseball book on my commutes from now on!
