ItemPixel points(Taipei, Garden City Publishing, 2003)The increasing adoption of digital media in design education also leads to subtle changes in design objectives, means, and outcomes in that process. Such changes are due to the peculiar nature of digital representations and operations that allow us to manipulate representations. With only a few decades of collective developments and experiences in digitally supported design education, it is not surprising that we still frame and reflect on these changes in only a provisional fashion. This paper reviews changes in design pedagogy and highlights emergence of a new design sensibility in ways of designing, that which is designed, and ways designs are communicated. In order to integrate such conceptual shifts in design education, we draw partially upon studies in traditional representations, media and architectural design that trace lineage of contemporary western architectural educational pedagogies to the earlier ones, to Bauhaus, Beaux-Arts and the master apprentice systems in antiquity. However, we also recognize that digital media are fundamentally different from traditional ones and call for new pedagogical strategies that in various guises complement, substitute or completely displace traditional modes of design exploration, development, documentation and communication.

ItemUnderstanding and representing the social prospects of hybrid urban spaces(PION LTD, 2007-05)As built environments become increasingly hybrid physical, social, and digital spaces, the intersecting issues of spatial context, sociality, and pervasive digital technologies need to be understood when designing for interactions in these hybrid spaces. Architectural and interaction designers need a mechanism that provides them with an understanding of the ‘sociality-places-bits' nexus. Using a specific urban setting as an analytical case study, we present a methodology to capture this nexus in a form that designers of hybrid spaces can effectively apply as a tool to augment digitally sociality in a built environment.
