| Abstract |
Use of computer systems in the last stage of architectural design has become common. Recently, studies have been conducted to increase their active use in the design planning stage. This was only possible after theories to systemize architectural components were developed and an application tool was made so that computer systems to support those theories. This study attempted to verify the potential of computer systems as a design and educational tool for use in the early stage of architectural design and for educational purposes. This study is based on the early work of Peter Eisenman who developed rules from the principle of plane composition using formal grammar theory. Those rules were applied here to create an MFC program that runs on the Web. This program was tested by architectural educators and students to verify its usability as a design and educational tool for the early stage of design and for education and various formal expressions. |
