summary	This paper examines the role of natural language in architectural design methods. It first investigates the role of language in decomposition and synthesis of architectural design problems giving special attention to Christopher Alexander’s theories. Then the notion of ideal types in architectural design is compared with empirical typologies that regard types as groupings of objects which have certain attributes in common. It is shown that Ludwig Wittgenstein’s game theory of language may serve as a method to cope with an underlying paradoxon of this empirical approach. Finally we present an attempt to use the "language-game " approach to describe and analyze architectural types.

title	Hyperarchitecture: Spaces in the Electronic Age
source	Birkhauser
summary	In an age dominated by the Internet and electronic media it is becoming increasingly clear that our perception of space is also undergoing a profound transformation. The author takes the reader on a fascinating journey, revealing who has played a part in this transformation. Avant-garde artists, including Boccioni, Duchamp and Kandinsky, the architect Gropius, philosophers such as Wittgenstein and psychoanalysts like Carl Gustav Jung all contributed to this development. Today, our awareness of traditional architectural space is changing; buildings are being rendered transparent, fleeting and intangible, enhanced by virtual potential. The author looks at works by Rem Koolhaas, Jean Nouvel, Frank Gehry, Zaha Hadid, James Wines, Daniel Libeskind, Toyo Ito, which reflect building in an age of virtual realism.

title	The digital visualization of the future architecture and the intellectual operations
source	SIGraDi 2005 - [Proceedings of the 9th Iberoamerican Congress of Digital Graphics] Lima - Peru 21-24 november 2005, vol. 1, pp. 257-263
summary	It is sustained here that the designer before carrying out any trace (digital or similar) on the architectural design to solve, the person carries out a series of intellectual operations that allow him/her to carry out this traces with more precision, delimitation, knowing the space that will be realized in future. This work explains how the digital visualization of the architecture will be carried out in a future, based on the construction of the knowledge that Piaget proposes about the cognitive structures and the significant learning, as well as the metacognición that Vygotsky and Ausubel; the topic of the language is also approached, because it is thought that the language is very related with the figuration element that is presented in the document as one of the intellectual operations and the pattern that Wittgenstein exposes in its book “Tractatus, logical-philosophicus”, where he explains how the figuration is given by means of the interrelation among the elements of the figure and how it comes from the linguistic question. This helps to understand the design process in its initial stage (mayeutic) and has a pedagogic application. [Full paper in Spanish]

title	Design Games as a Framework for Design and Corresponding System of Design Games
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2009.119
source	Computation: The New Realm of Architectural Design [27th eCAADe Conference Proceedings / ISBN 978-0-9541183-8-9] Istanbul (Turkey) 16-19 September 2009, pp. 119-126
summary	Borrowing from Wittgenstein, we devised a concept of ‘design games’, for a better understanding of the design process. A design game is the elusive basic unit of a design process. When we characterize design process with blurry components and indefinite stages, we can model design as a complex, collaborative process, where the designers’ biological states lose importance. This approach, may give rise to a better conception of design, where human-human, human-machine, machine-machine, or process to process interactions are inevitable, thus a thorough framework of collaboration might be defined. Moreover, if we start from this conception to produce a design framework, we may obtain a model for design automation studies. The loose pattern of design games, when combined with the possibility of all the agents’ being non-humans, seems us to indicate the road to ‘creative design automation’.

title	Resource Driven Urban Metabolism – How Can Metabolic Scaling be Used in Urban Design?
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2013.561
source	Open Systems: Proceedings of the 18th International Conference on Computer-Aided Architectural Design Research in Asia (CAADRIA 2013) / Singapore 15-18 May 2013, pp. 561-570
summary	City scale projects are complex multivariable problems and have previously been addressed using a variety of organisational principles, whether it be the infrastructural grid, used by Ludwig Hilbersheimer in his project “Hochhausstadt” or the spinal organisation of the Tokyo Masterplan done by Kenzo Tange and the Metabolist Movement. This project strays from traditional methods of structuring a city and investigates a novel self-engineered anticipatory model, which focuses on the use of generative and genetic algorithms to develop a new associative system to develop coastal cities in arid climates. The system functions as a negative feedback loop, analysing existing conditions, and by a series of mathematical functions, projecting the new growth patterns for major components of a city, such as building envelopes, road networks, canal networks and public space distribution as a result of the cities internally generated resources.
