Abstract

ABSTRACTThis paper investigates the cognitive design processes of three groups of architectural designers from different cultural and linguistic backgrounds. At the core of the research is a triple-coding system for protocol analysis, which formally captures both cognitive and linguistic characteristics in architectural design. The results of the experiment demonstrate the effectiveness of the coding system for facilitating the exploration of design cognition and its relationship to spatial language. The comparative analysis confirms that cognitive allocation is related to the production of design information and spatial language. It also indicates that there are observable differences in design cognition, design information, and spatial language among Australian and Asian designers. This multi-focused approach contributes to advancing fundamental knowledge about the relationship between design and language.
