Computer Programs and Design Processes in the Construction of Architectural Knowledge

The works studies aspects of design strategies and computer graphics programs, and it presents possibilities of using computer to aid architectural conception. It envolves three area knowledgement situating the subject at the compass of the design teaching, considering the impact of the computing technology expertise architectural. It establishes a conceptual correspondense developed by the theoric discussion, amongst the analogies and sucessives aproximations it also focuses operatives categories of the architectural design and computers operator. It results the configuration of images and concepts which preexist in the designs procedures. The works also aproaches relations of object representation and architectural design. It makes a relation-ship between graphics categories and architecture to unable studies base on concepts of design theory and its connection with the computer program. It generates matrix of knowledgement, refered to the theory of architectural composition, extracting expertise able to sugest analogies with the computer programs, which operators use to describe and represent the architectural object and decision making during the design process
