We don’t want to compete on how cheaply we can provide labor and concrete.

And at Bryden Wood, we are all equals.It doesn’t matter if you’re a man or a woman.

We’re all colleagues and we’re encouraged to go out there and be proactive.'.KELSEY PATERSON, INTERMEDIATE ENGINEER, MECHANICAL & ELECTRICAL.'I’m a mechanical engineer.

I work on building services.. We design heating, air conditioning & ventilation for all the buildings that we work on.I enjoy the challenge.

A lot of it is problem-solving and working together with the wider Bryden Wood team, which I really enjoy.

It’s well suited to my personality, because I like getting into the detail of things.Fundamental questions of viability and value must be asked early and answered using data-driven modelling and schematics..

Sitting with the client and asking questions forms the basis of every project that follows a Design to Value approach.Rather than proposing a building to a client who in turn decides if they (a) like the idea and (b) can afford it, Design to Value first asks What is it that you need?

What are you trying to achieve?That of course could end up being a building.
