- Bryan Lawson: ‘79-’05
- Donald Schön: ‘83
- Herbert Simon: ’83-’96
- Christopher Alexander: ‘64-’71-’77-’79-’04

Important role of theories and beliefs
reflective ‘learning-while-doing’ continuous belief-revision / theory-revision as a product of doing / design activity
Theory-based decision-makingThe acquired theories serve as a memory of reference
=> Designers rely on previously experienced design decisions to make new design decisions

Building stories

Evaluation
Objective: provide designers with information from previous experiences by others.
Solution: labelled repository of images, text, 3D models, etc.

Revisiting the reasoning cycle
P. Pauwels - SCAD 2011 – 17/02/2011
easily enable designers to learn from new experiences that are
- additional to their own experiences, and
- most probably different from what was originally intended
14
So, how to increase information feed??
Try to simulate the complete reasoning cycle=> artificial intelligence
AND / OR
Enable designers to find their information easily
