碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 建築研究所 === 99 === For architects, representing media is regarded not only a tool concerning design, communication, and concept connection but a review instrument between architects, owners and constructors as well before architecture projects are put into action. In addition, such a method also offers a much easier and direct way for owners to smooth conversation with people lacking design experience. Given the diverse nature of digital technology, digital model has played an essential role when it comes to bridging consensus between architects and owners. Some architects would employ photorealistic 3D architectural renderings, which can create interactive architectural visualization in terms of the project's material, space and reality, to present their works. Nevertheless, no matter how the project is presented, either in the form of 3D rendering or animation, the architects still enjoy the advantage of the communication process. On the contrary, owners are forced to play a less-dominant role while engaging in the communications with the architects. Apart from this, the communication between the two will be carried out on the imagination grounds. We try to employ the software Quest3D combined with the features of instantaneity, free viewpoint and media initiative, the space of "being inside" interface would therefore be created. The purpose of this research seeks to explore the depth of the issue by Quest3D through two methods: interview and ongoing project implementation. Several questions below have been raised regarding how to redefine the relationship between architect and owner, as well as how to clear out the confusion occurred through the design layout presentation at the same time. In addition, to what extent can the media representation nowadays, whether being presented digitally or traditionally, fulfill the needs between architect and owner? From this perspective, communication on representing media should not be seen as visual observation, but should be regarded as space simulation for the purpose of further assessment before the projects are turned into reality.
