striking how much people are fascinated with new design tools, and do not really wonder. Computer programs increasingly offer more and more possibilities. For example, 3D programs which allow viewing objects before they are built. are programs that simulate those that have fired our capacity for wonder. Decades ago drawing hand, the cardboard model were the tools with which we communicated between designers and also with our customers. Today, design has become more complex, more and more variables are integrated to the dance in advance. Now when we talk about light, we use the concept Lux , when it comes to thermal comfort, there are the concepts of thermal conductivity, emissivity and many more. (Incidentally we have added to our links an excellent glossary of energy terms. )
computer programs allow us to play and anticipate behaviors that before could only be explained with concepts like "Good light" .. or "warm." It is the fascination of anticipation.
But ... dazzled beware! After all, these tools are just that ... tools, and tools are handled by a human. Beware of blind faith in the results on the screen. These tools are another element that helps us make decisions. Remains as important is the ability of analysis and observation of the wearer .. In this regard .. we do not distinguish much of what he lived Da Vinci.
