Abstract An architect carrying the design process alone, neglecting the significance of collaboration and management, is the main reason for the deterioration of the quality of the architectural product as the complexity of the projects makes it a multi-disciplinary work. Then, the linking between the Integrative Design Process (IDP) and Architectural Management (AM) must be applied in the architectural firm especially from the early design phases. This linkage improves the product’s quality and eliminates the ignorance of the principles of design causing the occurrence of low-grade buildings. The research explores the Integrative Design (ID) principles and AM approaches in order to eliminate the problems affecting the design process which are due to the gap between the different stakeholders of the project. A survey takes place to investigate the potentials of integrating this approach into Egyptian architectural firms. It is used to emphasize the importance of this application which ensures the realization of the project’s goal and eliminates the reduction in the project’s quality. |
