Effects of cognitive styles on 2D drafting and design performance in digital media
(Springer Netherlands, 2010)This paper investigates the interactions between design students' cognitive styles, as measured by Riding's Cognitive Styles Analysis, and performance in 2D drafting and design tasks in digital media. An empirical research ... -
Effects of different lighting arrangements on space perception
(Taylor & Francis, 1999)The idea to improve the quality of lighting design in interior spaces has gained importance in the last years. This experimental study concentrateson the quality of lighting and the relation between lighting arrangements ... -
Environmental discourse of architecture
(Taylor & Francis, 2009-03)This study attempts to examine the environmental discourse of architecture. The attempt to constitute a linguistic framework for the environmental discourse requires a critical understanding of the interrelationship among ... -
The influence of sustainable design features on indoor environmental quality satisfaction in Turkish dwellings
(Taylor & Francis, 2016)The aim of this paper is to explore the influence of sustainable design features on occupants satisfaction levels with indoor environmental quality (IEQ) aspects in three types of dwellings. Satisfaction level was investigated ... -
An insight on designers’ sketching activities in traditional versus digital media
(Pergamon Press, 2003-01)This study aims at gaining an insight on designers' cognitive processes while sketching in digital vs traditional media. Empirical data on design processes have been obtained from protocol analyses of six interior designers ... -
Integration of reasoning systems in architectural modeling activities
