Collaborative pedagogy in architectural design studio: A case study in applying collaborative design

A Collaborative Design Studio: Architecture and Prototype

In this paper we discuss theDrexel Collaborative Design Studio (DCDS), an environment for distributed engineering under development at the Geometric and Intelligent Computing Laboratory at Drexel University. DCDS is intended to enhance collaborative design work, focusing in particular on design of electro-mechanical artifacts. Our goal is to provide transparent collaborative work and archival s...

Knowledge-based Collaborative Architectural Design

Architectural Design and the Collaborative Research Environment

Given that science is a collaborative endeavor, architects are striving to design new research buildings that not only provide a more pleasant work space but also facilitate interactions among researchers.

Comparative navigation system for collaborative architectural design

We investigated the concepts, strategies, and functions of a 3D virtual design environment for collaborative, real-time architectural design using our 3D comparative navigation system and virtual reality technology. The development of the ‘comparison’ concept has enabled interactive design in real time in a 3D computer environment. Since participants must be able to easily understand the propos...

Interactive Tools for Collaborative Architectural Design

Today’s rapidly changing society is continuously developing towards an increased demand for multistakeholder knowledge and influence in the architectural planning and design process. Accordingly, we are working with developing and setting up a partner engaged collaborative design process. It includes active collaboration between users, external partners and designers, and visualizations in conc...
