A critique of the representationalist framing of design (2022)
Journal Article

This paper brings attention to the chronological developments in a strand of design research that aimed at demystifying the characteristics and nature of design through what will be argued to have been predominantly a representationalist framework. I... Read More about A critique of the representationalist framing of design.

Architects’ ‘enforced togetherness’: New design affordances of the home (2022)
Journal Article

Lockdown impositions have impacted people’s lives, their health and wellbeing, changing the ways in which dwellings are used and occupied. Spaces within the home have had to be rapidly renegotiated, redesigned and resynchronised in ways not yet fully...

Dialogue in the studio: Supporting comprehension in studio-based architectural design tutorials (2020)
Journal Article

This article examines perceptions regarding the purpose and delivery of tutorials in the architectural design studio that can support how students comprehend feedback. It draws on literature on ‘dialogic feedback’ and theoretical accounts of ‘dialogu... Read More about Dialogue in the studio: Supporting comprehension in studio-based architectural design tutorials.

A novel systematic approach for analysing exploratory design ideation (2019)
Journal Article

Two kinds of design ideation process may be distinguished in terms of the problems addressed: (i) solution-focused, i.e. generating solutions to address a fixed problem specifying a desired output; and (ii) exploratory, i.e. considering different int...

Knowledge distribution and the effect of design tools on the design process (2017)
Book Chapter

This paper compares the cognitive performance of architecture students when designing tasks using one of the three design tools: pencil and paper, software Sketch Up and Rhinoceros 3D. It questions if a design tool can affect when knowledge is genera... Read More about Knowledge distribution and the effect of design tools on the design process.

Decreasing the effect of verbal noise in analyzing cognitive activity of a design process (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

In studying cognitive activity in design it is common practice to use designers' verbalizations during a design process to elicit the reasoning behind design actions. These verbalizations are segmented in order to enable a quantifiable analysis of th... Read More about Decreasing the effect of verbal noise in analyzing cognitive activity of a design process.

Design behaviour and distributed cognition: A protocol study on the effect of design tools on the process of architectural design thinking
Thesis

This thesis, is an explorative research, manifesting factors that influence the relationship between a designer and their design tool. The interest of the thesis is in the epistemic role of a design tool and how it can influence a designer’s thinking...
