The architectural character of a building is based on different aspects. In order to understand the spirit of each building, we must study functional, associated and personal elements of it. Each architectural element differs in each aspect since each one is based on previous analysis and studies to be able to emerge and reach its purpose. The Montessori architectural project is based on research on the method of this system that provides environments prepared for the proper development of children in education. The classrooms, materiality, socialization, environments and spaces are studied in order to be able to generate and gradually form design ideas to generate the project in a successful way. It is decided based on the information obtained by previous studies, to use the neuroarchitecture design guideline to be able to meet the guidelines and objectives of this Montessori method, since this guiding concept goes beyond the study of space, but involves the emotions and feelings of the people who live the spaces. In this way, it is better understood that what guides us to the architectural design of the proposal based on the Montessori method are the studies of neuroarchitecture.

More than 80% of the people in the USA and Canada live in cities. Urban development replaces natural environments with built environments resulting in limited access to outdoor environments which are critical to human health and well-being. In addition, many urban open spaces are unused because of poor design. This paper describes case studies where traditional landscape architectural design approaches would have compromised design success, while evidence-based landscape architecture (EBLA) resulted in a successful product. Examples range from school-yard design that provides safe levels of solar radiation for children, to neighborhood parks and sidewalks that encourage people to walk and enjoy nearby nature. Common characteristics for integrating EBLA into private, public, and academic landscape architecture practice are outlined along with a discussion of some of the opportunities and barriers to implementation.

With the development of economy and the improvement of people's living level, improving living conditions and public buildings, architectural design requirements are also constantly improved. Modern architecture should consider not only beautiful and comfortable, but also take into account the design individuality, while taking into consideration the people-oriented design concept of environmental protection and energy saving. This also makes the environmental friendly and energy-saving building is the development direction of future architecture. This paper analyzes the modern architecture of the ecological and environmental protection, gives the method to realize the construction of energy-saving environmental protection design and the use of new materials, new equipment and new technology of the existing.

<p>This research investigates a progression away from acoustics formed by spaces and towards spaces that are driven by target acoustics. Despite architecture and acoustics’ shared consideration of form, materiality and inhabitation, too often acoustics is neglected from design and so is treated remedially, nullifying creativity. A case study project was undertaken to investigate the opportunities and limitations of two parametric tools, Galapagos (a generative solver) and Pachyderm (an acoustic simulation tool), to develop acoustic qualities in early architectural design. Yet, what are these acoustic qualities and how could they be measured? Testing of cafes in the Wellington CBD was undertaken to investigate these questions.  Six cafes were acoustically tested and five patrons from each of these completed a subjective survey. The café testing suggested that Reverberation Time (RT) could be an effective acoustic measure to direct architectural design. The café with the lowest patron enjoyment rating also recorded the longest RT and highest Sound Pressure Level (SPL), reinforcing the relationship between these three elements. Through these findings, patron enjoyment was concluded to be dependent on SPL and SPL was concluded to be dependent on RT (Whitlock and Dodd, 424). In order to increase patron enjoyment, Galapagos was utilised to explore possible forms that met a target design RT of 0.7 seconds. An RT of 0.7 seconds was chosen as it was shorter than the AS/NZS 2107 (2000) maximum and was comparable to the cafés with the two highest subjective enjoyment ratings.  Through a parametric and analogue design methodology, Galapagos and Pachyderm were used to investigate how acoustic goals could shape a café design. The case study project produced a design that not only meets this acoustic criterion but harnesses form to sculpt sound. Instead of applying absorption to flat surfaces, the convex curves on the north and east facades disperse sound, producing both a diffuse environment and an engaging architectural element. This integrated investigation demonstrated that a parametric and analogue design process can be implemented to create a acoustically and architecturally effective design.</p>

In the form language of architectural design, the process of form generation and the source of form are completely different from the perspective of construction and vision. The two traceability for form are opposite. This paper attempts to quantify and analyze the process in a creative way of digital, by summarizing the relevant digital research of forms, a feasible modular sequence is proposed, which can correspond the form evaluation based on construction and vision in architectural design, and provide an actionable way by digital for the form design language.

Cities have different architectural features in terms of cultural, historical, geographical and social life. It is seen that each city has a unique identity over time. The reason for this is that the people living in the city have lifestyle, social behaviors and cultural values. Many cities have architectural symbols that symbolize that city. Functional use should be prioritized in the design phase of urban furniture, aesthetics is of course an important detail, but in order for the community to be together in the city, urban furniture should be ergonomic and functionality within certain standards in terms of different physical features. The climatic conditions of that city should be taken into consideration in the selection of materials for urban furniture. Lighting elements, plant elements, recreational elements, signs and information signs, floor coverings, artistic objects, including waste bins should be considered together. Urban furniture should complement each other with a holistic approach. It is seen that the materials used in the design have positive and negative effects on people psychologically. Wooden designs using natural materials give the feeling of calmness and rest. It is seen that concrete and iron materials give a sense of strength. In the use of artificial materials, there is a feeling of anxiety. The phenomenon of color in designed urban furniture causes a sense of dynamism or calmness. Remarkable designs are often made for symbolic purposes. It is an important detail for urban furniture that it is sometimes criticized and attracted attention instead of being liked.

The building is enclosed the spatial structure of the human lifestyle, and clothing is the "packaging" of the people, with modesty naked. The building on the space recorded the development and progress of human society, and the clothing reflects the development of human civilization. In this paper, the use of color, body composition and materials of the three aspects of clothing and architecture are discussed similarities and similarities in terms of design, In addition, from the official architectural culture and clothing culture, literati building materials culture and clothing culture and folk building materials culture and clothing materials culture demonstrates the culture intrinsic link between architectural culture clothing culture of mutual learning and mutual influence. To further illustrate the architecture and clothing appears to be two different professional, but in terms of design and culture, between each other is a profound inner link, Both organically combined, will be able to better develop the architectural design and fashion design.

A morphing method for product design is proposed in this study. In this model, a feature-based method is first used to construct a CAD model of a product. The image perception of the product is then quantified by using ‘semantic difference (SD)’ and the relationships between the morphed shapes and image words are analyzed with ‘gray theory’. A consultative computer program is then constructed based on these basic data. With this program, the designer can start to develop design ideas and will quickly obtain a product form that fits the demanded image by inputting an image word. Though the form design for a LCD monitor is taken as an example in this study, this method can also be used to develop other products.
