summary

This paper presents a partial summary of my PhD research with the working title: “View preferences and effects - a study of visual language for architectural design within a represented urban context”. In contrast to much VR-research that focuses on techniques for the public presentation of a completed design or an existing urban site, this research focuses on the use of 3D-city-models during the architectural design process. The models serve as a source of visual information that can be used to bring the design in a good relation with the yet existing built environment. In the research, I investigated the possibilities to make a VRML - city-model adaptable in its representation, in order to adhere to both the factual and the imaginative needs of a designing architect. The paper consecutively presents the problem, the conceptual change and development of research questions, the methodology and a brief overview of the research findings.
