About the manual
The working manual of Avci Architects
Avci Architects is an architecture practice. This site is the firm's reference for how projects are structured, produced and checked — the knowledge that should not depend on who happens to remember it.
What belongs here
- Project structure
- Folder templates, naming conventions and where each kind of record belongs.
- Production standards
- Drawing, model and presentation conventions that apply across projects.
- Quality control
- Stage gates, checklists, sign-offs and the records they leave behind.
- Efficiency
- Repeatable workflows, automation and tooling that remove manual steps.
How it is maintained
Each guide has an owner and a last-updated date. Published guides are reviewed as the practice changes, not only when a project goes wrong. Planned guides are listed on the home page so gaps in the manual are visible, but they do not become links until the page exists.
There is currently 1 published guide and 5 in preparation. The folder template is generated from the real directory, so its counts and codes are not transcribed by hand.
Proposing a new guide
- Name the decision or repeated task that is currently handled differently from project to project.
- Identify the owner: the technical lead, quality lead or practice manager accountable for it.
- Draft the rule, the record it produces and the point in the project where it applies.
- Add the page and one registry entry so the home page and navigation pick it up.
What does not belong here
Marketing material, project-specific records and live drawing sets stay in their project folders. This site describes how the firm works; it does not store the work itself.
