Inquiries of a designer
Architecture is a discipline which requires the recognition of its cyclic pattern of learning where a young architect must have the competence and confidence to make. While he also must be prepared to look at the results critically and to start the cycle over at the beginning, with confidence and …

Quantifying consumer perception of designer intent
This thesis explores the relationship between designer intent and consumer response. A novel approach to evaluate the degree of correspondence between designer intent and consumer perceptions has been proposed. The empirical results have shown the influence of consumers’ cultural backgrounds on the …

Typographical Portabilities: The Designer and User inCommunication Technologies
… our relationship to type, as readers and as designers. Virtual typography can be defined as a new form of typographic communication that is reimagining the way we understand type as a visually communicating medium; we have moved from viewing type in print as “voice” to increasingly regarding …

Designer Porous Carbon Electrodes for Redox Flow Batteries
Porous carbon electrodes play an important role in electrochemical systems by providing electrocatalytic sites to facilitate faradaic reactions, distributing reactants and products, and conducting electrons and heat. The microstructure and surface chemistry of such electrodes are of particular …

Observations of designer behaviors in complex system design
… for optimizing complex system design assume that designers behave in a rational, consistent manner. However, observation of design practice suggests that there are limits to the rationality of designer behavior. This paper explores the gap between complex system designs generated via formal design …

Designer Exons Inform a Biophysical Model for Exon Definition
… exon definition mechanism was addressed using designer exons made up of prototype sequence modules of our own design (including an exonic splicing enhancer or silencer). Studies were performed in vitro with a set of DEs obtained from random combinations of the exonic splicing enhancer and the …

Integrating design and optimization tools : a designer-centered study
… of their total time with the problems, 50% of designers with a fully integrated tool had a better design than 75% of other designers ever would. After that point, the top 50% of designers went on to explore a design space unreached with other tools. It appears that integration, and in …

Less realism : more meaning : evaluating imagery for the graphic designer
… and in pratice is left to the instinct of the designer. In this thesis I try to find approaches for graphic designers to understand image to the degree that they understand type. These approaches are tested through assignments for graphic design students and the results recorded and analysed. I …
