This article examines the usefulness and impact of a new generation of sketch-based environments on the preliminary or conceptual stages of architectural design. It also contemplates new directions in the field of digital sketch interpretation, particularly in architecture. Our qualitative and exploratory study compares three different forms of preliminary architectural design activities: one architecture student in a conventional pencil and paper situation, and two other architecture students using different versions of EsQUIsE software on a Virtual Desktop. Our observations lead to three major conclusions: (1) An automatically generated 3D model is a useful feature for checking the volumes of a planned building. (2) In spite of imposing some limits, the EsQUIsE environment enables the user to make modifications in the nature of architectural representations. (3) Several “superposition design” approaches exist, partly structured by the design environment. [less ▲]

Based on our research on evaluating a Virtual desk environment for architects and designers is it possible to derive requirements for supporting collaborative design activities ? We first examine questions related to internal and external interactions in architectural design, to the role of external representations and their extension as shared objects of design in collaborative horizontal tabletop. Then we describe the Virtual Desktop and the EsQUIsE software. We will synthesize the results of our former investigations on this setting, in order to derive new orientations for the design and research. [less ▲]

Within a multidisciplinary team of designers, architects and mechanical engineers, and ergonomists, we participate in a research project (ICC) in design and creative interface. This paper describes a participative and iterative approach and reviews the results of field studies involved in the design of a portable tool for finalizing freehand drawings. The results are discussed in terms of Activity Theory and its contribution to this field. [less ▲]
