"SET" Synopsis/Review of my Article.

Design Reasoning

In this article, you are able to understand the reasoning between shape, and prototyping.
As an introduction the definition of Abstract, they presented this as the production of a system that generates information for a physical model / with a 3d-printing device.

You are able to, describe and understand a design system.

When trying to understand your shape, you can start with a floor-plan as the initial shape, with a little need for an elevation drawing.

When you have your drawings, you are able to explore, and in addition of our own success, we can apply three-dimensional rules, which are based on the physical construction of a model, in order to understand your shape, leaving behind the 2d design, that was a result from the analysis of our first drawings.

After the explanation of some rule types (of design and construction) generating drawings to create and understand a physical model, I read a brief explanation of some methods like:
-Rules of design and rules of construction: a process based on physical reasoning.

-Brick as the unit of construction: The brick size determines the wall thickness, and brick dimensions varied from town to town.

-Manufacturing Designs: Making its way into many areas of the architectural design process.

-Walls, Ceilings, Cornices, Stairs, Columns, Door / Window openings, Frames, Details, Roofs etc…

With the example of a Palladian Villa, we were able to understand the reasoning between shape and function, that in order to analyze your shape, we can create 2d analysis and apply three-dimensional rules.
