دانلود کتاب Research Tools for Design – Spatial Layout and Patterns of Users’ Behaviour

The publication proposes a critical reading of the results obtained by the Seminar organized in January 2010 by the TAeD Department on research tools for the architectural project. The spatial layout in buildings and urban spaces influences the behaviors and relationships of users and in this the social nature of architecture is manifested with respect to other areas of design. Space Syntax (theory, methodology and techniques for the analysis of complex systems) takes this thesis as the basis of its research. The seminar was an opportunity to meet leading academic and professional figures for a comparison between research and experience of the Department and the Space Syntax group.
