“‘Object planning’ is the technical term used in the HOAI to describe the planning service that develops a building project from the initial concept through to the final structural design details — in the case of buildings, this is often referred to as an architectural service.”
“Object planning is required for virtually every construction project that goes beyond purely technical planning services — from new builds and refurbishments to urban development projects.
“In accordance with the HOAI, object planning is divided into service phases 1 to 9 — ranging from the preliminary study through to preliminary design, conceptual design, planning permission and detailed design, right through to site supervision and project management, supplemented by service phase 0 (project preparation).”

What is the difference between building design and specialist design, such as structural or façade design?
“Object planning develops the overall architectural concept for a project. Structural engineering, facade design, building services engineering and building physics, on the other hand, are the specialist disciplines that implement this concept in terms of structural, energy and building physics aspects.”
“Object planning is required for virtually every construction project that goes beyond purely technical planning services — from new builds and refurbishments to urban development projects. It is particularly essential where a project requires an overarching design and organisational framework that brings together various specialist disciplines.”
What stages does the project planning process comprise?
