建築設計過程中設計表現形式與視覺溝通現象之研究

Design Representations and Visual Communication Phenomena in the Architectural Design Process

建築設計是一種多人參與的整合與處理大量資料的活動，而藉由設計表現以達溝通之模式是設計團隊合作必要的條件。本研究乃在於探討設計者在設計過程中，以及如何應用溝通媒介呈現視覺化圖形資料。針對設計過程中的設計草圖、設計發展及施工圖三個階段探討。設計資料之傳輸工具為溝通媒介。設計資料為溝通過程中所有視覺式圖形資料。探討內容包括設計溝通理論、傳達及技術三層面。本研究以設計溝通理論為出發點，探討著重於傳遞者及接收者間之溝通模式，及溝通內容中討論主題及表達形式。研究方法包含設計資料之表達形式分類、實務案例分析、與問卷調查分析。研究成果包含建立設計溝通模式，歸納設計圖形資料之表達形式與使用時機。研究結論為設計溝通與思考有關，表達形式具有階段性特徵，設計者常使用方式為「文字＋圖示」組合之表達形式，以及表達形式與工具有關。電腦在建築設計應用層面越來越廣，未來在設計溝通的領域則可朝電腦之工具、數位化溝通內容及資料管理面作深入探討。

Architectural design is an activity which requires many participants to integrate and manage a large volume of information. Design communication is necessary and important in the collaborative design process. This study is motivated to understand how designers present design information in the of form of visual representations. This study aims to discuss how the visual representations can be transmitted by communcation media by designers in the design process. The scope of study includes the schematic design, design developement, and construction document stages of the design process. This study is focusing on design communication in terms of theoretic model, representations, and technology. Based on the communication theory, this study explore communication patterns between senders and receivers, and design contents including themes and representations. The reseach method includes the classification of representation forms, design case studies, and questionaire studies. The result of this study is to establish a design communicating model, and the findings indicate that the design commumication is correlated with design thinking. There are clear representation used in different design stages, designers often use the 'words & figures' form for representing their thinking in design phase, and the consequence explains that the forms of representation is related with communication tools. Because computers are widely applied to design fields, how computer-based tools and digital media influence design communication should be studied in the future.
