Parametric modeling tools in small architectural offices: Towards an adapted design process model
نویسندگان
چکیده
The transformation of architectural design practices has been underway for almost forty years, given the development and democratization computer technology. Since then, architects have continuously confronted with digital challenges; among those, implementation parametric modeling tools. While those challenges studied in context large companies, very few studies focused on strategies developed by small offices, even though they represent largest part European market. In this underexplored context, researching practice five firms lead us to reconsider complete typology process models Blessing (1995), suggest a model mirroring how tools re-shape processes offices.

Towards Auto-Suggested Process Modeling - Prototypical Development of an Auto-Suggest Component for Process Modeling Tools
Companies have accepted process modeling as a powerful instrument for business reorganization, requirements specification in software development, knowledge management and other activities. Huge amounts of processes are being modeled in organizations nowadays. However, the re-use of existing process knowledge in order to simplify the modeling process has not yet been thoroughly studied and appl...
متن کاملTowards Usable Analysis, Design and Modeling Tools
In this paper, we discuss the issues preventing adoption of analysis, design and modeling (AMD) software development tools. We argue that AMD tools are experiencing the same problems observed with UI tools in the past. We recall those problems and outline the major developments that AMD tools should focus to achieve stronger market acceptance, in particular we argue that such an acceptance will...
متن کاملMetaphor: a Creative aid in Architectural Design Process
In the developing world, skills in innovation and creative design have emerged as key attributes for graduating designers. Creativity is essential if we want to generate new solutions to the considerable and complex problems in architecture. Metaphor is frequently expressed as a key tool for enhancing creative design, yet little empirical research has been performed on how novice designers can ...
متن کاملdrawing diagrams as an aid to architectural design process
designers draw diagrams to think about architectural concepts and design concerns. scientists are interested in programming computers to recognize and interpret design diagrams to deliver appropriate tools for the design task at hand. researchers conducted empirical studies to find out if designers share drawing conventions when designing. the experiment results show that designers use differen...
متن کاملA Computer-based Information System for Architectural Design Offices
Obtaining, handling and distributing information among participants in the building design process has become more difficult with increasing project complexity. In individual areas such as scheduling, estimating and drafting, it is possible to have access to computerized tools but it is clear that there is a gap in architects’ offices regarding the integration of these tools into a unified syst...
