        • Development-Based Management
          Time as an Instrument for the Creation of Value

        Abstract
        The city is in a constant state of change, Iris Schutten argues in her essay. In order to respond to transformation, recession, growth or decline, there is an ever-increasing call for the use of interim, flexible planning processes, natural local regeneration and open-source working methods in architecture and urban development. This often conflicts, however, with the existing practice of development and management. The two disciplines rely on definite information; there is little room for the unexpected. Scope for uncertainty and flux might be found by having the two disciplines merge into development-based management. By literally leaving open and unplanned room for unexpected developments, unforeseen circumstances can be taken into account, such as financial setbacks or modified insights. For both architecture and urban regeneration, ‘room for difference’ is a more fruitful starting point than the ‘utopia of equality and uniformity’. The essay includes additional reflection on development-based management using descriptions of several real-life examples.

      What does the author’s ‘owning’ of a project mean? And does this sense of ownership still prevail in contemporary architecture culture? Other more open forms of cooperation and co-creation are emerging alongside the concept of individual singular authorship.
