New computational design tools have evolved rapidly and been increasingly applied in the field of design in recent years complimenting and even replacing the traditional design media and approaches. Design as both the process and product are changing due to the emergence and adoption of these new technologies. Understanding and assessing the impact of these new computational design environments on design and designers is important for advancing design in the contemporary context. Do these new computational environments support or hinder design creativity? How do those tools facilitate designersâ thinking? Such knowledge is also important for the future development of design technologies. Research shows that design is never a mysterious non-understandable process for example one general view is that design process shares a common analysis-synthesis-evaluation model during which designers interact between design problem and solution spaces. Understanding designersâ thinking in different environments is the key to design research education and practice. This book focuses on emerging computational design environments whose impact on design and designers have not been comprehensively and systematically studied. It comprises three parts. The history and recent developments of computational design technologies are introduced in Part I. The main categories of technologies cover from computer-aided drafting and modelling tools to visual programming and scripting tools for algorithmic design to advanced interfaces and platforms for interactions between designers between designers and computers and between the virtual environment and the physical reality. To critically explore design thinking especially in these new computational design environments formal approaches to studying design thinking and design cognition are introduced and compared in Part II drawing on literature and studies from the 70s to the current era. Part III concludes the book by exploring the impact of different computational design technologies on design and designers using a series of case studies conducted by the author team building on their close collaboration over the past five years. The book offers new insights into designersâ thinking in the rapidly evolving computational design environments which have not been critically and systematically studied and reported in the current literature. The book is meant for design researchers educators and students professional practitioners and consultants as well as people who are interested in computational design in general. | Computational Design Technology Cognition and Environments

Sellers offer a range of delivery options, so you can choose the one thatâs most convenient for you. Many sellers offer free delivery. You can always find the postage cost and estimated delivery date in a sellerâs listing. You'll then be able to see a full list of delivery options during checkout. These can include: Express delivery, Standard delivery, Economy delivery, Click & Collect, Free local collection from seller.
Your options for returning an item vary depending on what you want to return, why you want to return it, and the seller's return policy. If the item is damaged or doesn't match the listing description, you can return it even if the seller's returns policy says they don't accept returns. If you've changed your mind and no longer want an item, you can still request a return, but the seller doesn't have to accept it. If the buyer changes their mind about a purchase and wants to return an item, they may need to pay return postage costs, depending on the seller's return policy. Sellers can provide a return postage address and additional return postage information for the buyer. Sellers pay for return postage if there's a problem with the item. For example, if the item doesn't match the listing description, is damaged or defective or is counterfeit. By law, customers in the European Union also have the right to cancel the purchase of an item within 14 days beginning from the day you receive, or a third party indicated by you (other than the carrier) receives, the last good ordered by you (if delivered separately). This applies to all products except for digital items (e.g. Digital Music) that are provided immediately to you with your acknowledgement, and other items such as video, DVD, audio, video games, Sex and Sensuality products and software products where the item has been unsealed.
Sellers have to offer a refund for certain items only if they are faulty, such as: Personalised items and custom-made items, Perishable items, Newspapers and magazines, Unwrapped CDs DVDs and computer software. If you used your PayPal balance or bank account to fund the original payment, the refunded money will go back to your PayPal account balance. If you used a credit or debit card to fund the original payment, the refunded money will go back to your card. The seller will effect the refund within three working days but it may take up to 30 days for Paypal to process the transfer. For payments funded partially by a card and partially by your balance/bank, the money taken from your card will go back to your card and the remainder will return to your PayPal balance.
