When and how would scenario planning fit into a standard building project? Two points in the usual design sequence come to mind. Sometimes both might be used, since scenarios frequently are developed by stages, with research in between to pursue the new questions that scenarios inevitably raise. The first opportunity would be the initial forming of the vision for the building. The second would be after there has been some preliminary programming, which might be used as the “official future” of the building, and which a fresh look at scenarios should challenge.
