Abstract

This paper presents a user-centered data collection method, concerning “means of design” and “representation supports” implemented in a collective architectural design process. Our aim is to study how these observed means and representations are adapted to agile design methods. Our method - applied on several long (3 months) architectural design processes – allows us to identify patterns of use and to consider their efficiency level brought to designers.
