| Abstract
|
:
|
Architectural design is a deliberate act of creativity without any definite starting point which is often described as a nonlinear, multimodal approach of problem solving. Critical analysis of any design process reveals its basic stages, as ideation, evaluation, development, communication and production. It is obvious that these stages are not necessarily linear but can be examined as such. Designers use a number of design and drafting tools as well as their media (modality) to perform these processes. Designer’s focus of attention shifts between different aspects of design problem during the design process. In search of effective solution designers often tends to switch between modalities which is the method of communicating design ideas. This study considered three types of design modalities as manual, digital and mixed where a combination of various traditional and computer mediated design and drafting tools were used by design students to research, develop and communicate optimal design solutions.
