b"Professor Stephen Emmitt, from the University's Department of Architecture & Civil Engineering, delivers his inaugural lecture on 'living with buildings'. This puts forward an argument for improving the way in which architects manage design at a project and practice level - the architecture of practice. Professor Emmitt proposes that architects need to demonstrate the value of good design to their clients; something that can be achieved by (re) engaging with construction and applying effective management, resulting in architects being better positioned to influence the quality of what is built."
