Description
Designing Architecture: A Holistic Approach to Building Design. This book provides guidance for students and young architects on how to approach, analyze, and execute design projects effectively. It explores the design process from orchestrating client participation to finalizing schematic design, offering explicit strategies for doing design rather than simply reviewing principles and precedents. The book presents creative ideas in approaching and framing problems in design terms, as well as specific methods to translate ideas into culturally significant, socially responsive, and environmentally sensitive buildings. It also provides techniques to integrate all levels of cognition from analysis to epiphany, and counsel on developing a personalized process for engaging design projects. Through case studies and real-world applications, the book chronicles fascinating examples of the design process in action, highlighting its importance in creating meaningful architectural form.
