A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
This dissertation investigates, (i) How cognitive biases (or illusions) may lead to errors in design thinking, (ii) Why architects use architectural precedents as heuristics despite such possible errors, and (iii) Develops a design tool that can overcome this type of errors through the introduction of a rebuttal mechanism. The mechanism controls biases and improve accuracy in architectural thinking.
