1.0 Introduction The aim of this report is to explain to the client how the design process for the proposed project is likely to progress. This report will explain the roles and responsibilities of those involved in the design process. Planning approval, the environment and the availability of materials can all have an effect on the final design. 2.0 Methodology This report is the result of detailed investigations using text books, internet and past project experience. 3.0 Inception This is there initial meeting with the client to determine there wants and needs. During this stage the architect will try to gather as much information as possible in order for them assess the feasibility of the project. With regards to the science block the following needs to be established: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Why is there a need for a new building? Why now? What type of science block is required? A detailed explanation of how a typical lesson/day would operate? What is the proposed timescale? Roughly what is the budget
