The realization of faster and lesser workforce while advancing the local manufacturing capability for con-structing industrialised buildings has been hampered by the restrictive form formulation so contradicting the natural architectural design process. During the first decade of introducing industrialised building sys-tems—or IBS—many architects were disheartened when there were limited cache of available compo-nents in the supply market. Instead of encountering gratifying IBS design experience, architects became irritated when they were constituting the 3-D volu-metric form of their architectural visions. Motivated by the need to industrialised timber construction for Ma-laysia, Ibrahim and Jaganathan utilised ethnography research methodology to study an expert during the design, prefabrication and assembly of a timber build-ing. They established prefabrication and design links to construction quality performance and the need to include both downstream aspects during design
of timber buildings. Their research led to discover-ies on streamlining the architectural design process which integrates timber prefabrication and assembly requirements very early during design stage. Their in-vention is called the architectonic spacer building sys-tem. It differs from the dominant post-and-beam fram-ing system yet improves the platform framing system in timber construction. Its ultimate benefit is realising architectural aesthetical form formulation. Varied pre-determined shaped spacers would support the flex-ible components assembly in making pre-assembled and standardised industrialised buildings. This article recommends the architectonic spacer building sys-tem to hybrid with non-timber materials and refined it for environmentally sensitive sites. The artefact is in-spired by the varied architectonic spacer forms which had been expended during the early prototype devel-opment.
