TextLanguage: English Series: Routledge ; Design research in architecturePublisher: Oxon : New York : Routledge, 2016Copyright date: ©2013Description: xxii, 265 pages : illustrations, plans, photographs ; 22 cmContent type: text | still image Media type: unmediated Carrier type: volumeISBN: 9781409462170 (paperback)Subject(s): Architectural design | Architecture | Design research -- ArchitectureLOC classification: NA2750 .D413 2016Subject: What is the role of design research in the types of insight and knowledge that architects create? That is the central question raised by this book. It acts as the introductory overview for Ashgate’s major new series, ’Design Research in Architecture’ which has been created in order to establish a firm basis for this emerging field of investigation within architecture. While there have been numerous architects-scholars since the Renaissance who have relied upon the interplay of drawings, models, textual analysis, intellectual ideas and cultural insights to scrutinise the discipline, nonetheless, until recently, there has been a reluctance within architectural culture to acknowledge and accept the role of design research as part of the discourse. However, in many countries around the world, one of the key changes in architecture and architectural education over the last decade has been the acceptance of design as a legitimate research area in its own right and this new series provides a forum where the best proponents of architectural design research can publish their work. This volume provides a broad overview on design research that supports and amplifies the different volumes coming out in the book series. It brings together leading architects and academics to discuss the more general issues involved in design research. At the end, there is an Indicative Bibliography which alludes to a long history of architectural books which can be seen as being in the spirit of design research. https://www.routledge.com/Design-Research-in-Architecture-An-Overview/Fraser/p/book/9781409462170
