A language-driven reverse-engineering tool for the analysis of architectural precedents: A Palladian case study
The analysis of precedents represents a significant point of departure for design processing. By applying a language/ design analogy, this research introduces a reverse-engineering tool that helps guide the systematic analysis of architectural precedents. The visual tool consists of four ma...

The analysis of precedents represents a significant point of departure for
design processing. By applying a language/ design analogy, this research
introduces a reverse-engineering tool that helps guide the systematic
analysis of architectural precedents. The visual tool consists of four main
layers: the morphological, the semantic, the semiotic, and the pragmatic. To
test the tool’s applicability, a prominent precedent from the Palladian
designs is analyzed as a case study. By developing the tool and
demonstrating its applicability for the analysis of the underlying
regulatory and formative principles of the Palladian design, this paper aims
to contribute to the knowledge of architectural design by introducing an
analytical tool for decoding and externalizing the design language. This
tool can be added to the existing toolbox of designers, and it can help
reveal new insights into the multi-layered compositional language of
precedents and their underlying architectonics. The findings related to the
tool’s applicability and the compositional language of the Palladian design
and its associative meanings and connotations are explained, discussed and
illustrated by diagrams. |
