| summary |
In this paper we present the experiences of integrating Virtual Reality based User Studies into a one-semester architectural design studio. The goal of this studio was to equip students with knowledge and methods for more systematically describing and evaluating user-centered qualities. The design task was on a new train station for a small German city. After a short design phase, students developed a concept for a user study for studying the effect of key design parameters on aspects such as wayfinding, welcomeness and waiting experience. Exemplary results of these studies are presented. Further, we display the student’s feedback to the course and outline recommendations for integrating user studies into architectural design studios. |
