Secret Harmonies: Modelling the Interface of ‘Architectural Science’ and ‘Design’
The integration of architectural science and design teaching would be assisted by the development of explicit models of design processes. Such models are needed to make the issues discussable. In the absence of explicit models, the point of application of science in the design process may remain obscure to the student. ‘Compartmentalisation’ may result. There is science, and there is design, and the two never meet in the student's mind or studio practice. This paper will present a teaching model of architecural design processes which can be used to make the issues explicit. The general model will be presented in outline. Those parts of the model which represent the interface between physical science and technology and the other aspects of design knowledge in the design process will be developed in more detail.
