A method for the three-dimensional and synchronous resolution of functional and spatial matters in architectural design
Abstract
The article discusses the issue of applied methods of teaching architectural design at Polish universities. The authors review the common methods based on conceptual drawings solving design problems in only two dimensions. After completing the floor plans' sketching process carried out in 2D way the 3D virtual models are made - seldom cardboard mock-ups - to illustrate the final spatial form of the designed object. At the Faculty of Architecture of Gdansk University of Technology the method of building an architectural concept is based on simultaneous analysis of spatial structure, functional connections and utility assumptions in three dimensions, by testing all the ideas in the mock-up structures first to find the adequate solutions for a particular context of the design. As the second stage of the design process the traditional methods of 2D design are implemented to conclude the architectural task. This process of building an architectural concept first in 3D mock-ups shapes students' spatial imagination - a desired ability in the architect's profession.
