A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Architectural designers' values and the evaluation of their designs
AbstractArising from a review of several design judgement studies, a tentative outline of the design process, using the framework of decision-making and value theory, is set out. This paper reports an experimental programme based upon that outline. The experiments entailed designers planning a school and, in conjunction with the design process, performing a judgement-analysis exercise to elicit their values. The plans are also evaluated subjectively with respect to the designers' values. Generally, the findings provide support for the tentative theory, and have several implications for design teaching, research and practice.
