Seven Lamps of Architectural Design

Desirability-based architectural design of forms

Abstract The decisions and personal preferences of the designer are vital for all aspects and stages of the design. To elaborate, the designer has the central role in creation, development, detailing and construction of the built forms. Also, the scientific/engineering evaluations of the design models are carried out under the directions and decisions of the designer. The paper explores the con...

Architectural Design of E1

Modern distributed operating systems provide users with transparent access to all resources of the computer network by means of distributed object abstraction. The access reliability and efficiency of such systems are determined by the internal implementation of the given abstraction. The existing architectures are based either on the centralized storage of the object state in one of network no...

Nature as a Source of Inspiration of Architectural Conceptual Design

From the beginning of creation, human being was surrounded by nature. Everything in nature is well organized and in harmony with the other parts of it. Through the history, nature has been always a source of inspiration for the human begin in different aspects of their life. Architecture as one of the remarkable features in every society cannot be separated from nature. In architecture design...

From architectural requirements to architectural design

Symmetry for Architectural Design

Symmetry and regularity abound in architectural models, often as a result of economical, manufacturing, functional, or aesthetic considerations. We show how recent work on symmetry detection and structure discovery can be utilized to analyze architectural designs and real-world artifacts digitized using 3D scanning technology. This allows reverse engineering of procedural models that facilitate...
