This document summarizes a lecture on design methods given by Dr. Yasser Mahgoub. The lecture defines design as both a process and product, aiming to produce a plan of action to achieve desired goals. It discusses how design works on many levels simultaneously using information and ideas. The lecture also outlines different approaches to the design process, including systematic linear methods involving problem understanding, research, analysis, synthesis and presentation; and non-linear argumentative models involving repeated cycles of positions, arguments and decisions.

- 1. ASU – Ain Shams University Faculty of Engineering Department of Architectural Engineering ARC 122: History & Theory of Architecture Fall 2017 Instructor: Dr. Yasser Mahgoub Lecture 2 - Design Methods
- 2. Design Methods By: Dr. Yasser Mahgoub
- 3. 3Dr. Yasser Mahgoub Building design is the keystone of architecture practice. It requires great skills as well as attention to broader concerns. THE NATURE OF ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN
- 4. 4Dr. Yasser Mahgoub But most of all it requires hours, months, and years of hard work. THE NATURE OF ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN
- 5. 5Dr. Yasser Mahgoub Translating : needs and aspirations, theories and technologies, and schedules and budgets Into appropriate and exciting places and buildings THE NATURE OF ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN
- 6. 6 Aims and Objectives The aim of this lecture is: To explore the domain of Design Methodology To understand the nature of architectural design methods
- 8. What is METHODOLOGY? The Greek origin of the term METHOD is "way through". Methodology is the science of method. The aim is to select the appropriate way through a difficulty.
- 9. DESIGN DESIGN is an activity, not a product. It is the process of designing that we call DESIGN, not the product that is designed.
- 10. 10 DESIGN DESIGN is an activity aiming at: The production of a plan of action which if executed is expected to lead to a situation with certain desired characteristics and without unforeseen and undesired side and after effects.
- 11. 11Dr. Yasser Mahgoub • Requirements: describe the desired properties of the design • Context: describe the environment of the design • Solution: describe the design Requirements Context Solution THE NATURE OF ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN
- 12. 12 DESIGN DESIGN is purposeful, goal-seeking activity, and the purpose is a plan of action. DESIGN goals change during the process of designing and learning more about the nature of the problem.
- 13. What is Design? DESIGN is a both a verb (to design) and noun (a design). DESIGN a process and a product; the process of designing and product that is designed. DESIGN is an activity aiming at the production of a plan of action which if executed is expected to lead to a situation with certain desired characteristics and without unforeseen and undesired side and after effects.
