visionary drawing in architectural design process

drawing 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...

an analytical comparison of drawing by hand and computer in architectural design process

the importance of drawing by hand in architectural design process is undoubtedly clear. nevertheless, different computer software for drawing and designing in the field of architecture are growing rapidly and the confrontation of these two different types of drawing has become an important subject of discussion, which needs to be addressed analytically. this article attempts to analyze the use ...

Metaphor: 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 ...

Drawing as Landscape Architectural Scholarship

Considering the vital role that drawing plays in conceiving buildings and landscapes, the question of “knowledge” in relation to visual representations becomes a matter of importance. The conventional view of drawing considers it a passive and neutral means to communicate mental concepts in visual form. The present study, however, views drawing as an essential vehicle that both enlists our crit...

“ eFPGAs : Architectural Explorations , System Integration & a Visionary Industrial

The thesis extensively revolves around embedded FPGAs (eFPGAs). It conducts detailed survey focused on programmable technologies to investigate potentials and challenges of eFPGAs and probable failure reasons of several past attempts of different kinds. Based on the survey knowledge, technology independent soft eFPGAs of FPGA-like mesh-based classical architecture with standard RTL programming ...
