Graphical Analysis 2.0: Digital Representation for Understanding and Communication of Architecture

  • Conference paper
  • First Online:

Abstract

Aim of the paper is to present how new technologies favor the so called “Graphical Analysis” process, i.e. the historical critical study of the architectural heritage through its re-presentation. The growth of digital technologies has affected disciplines involved in architectural studies, and computer based visualization has found in digital modeling an interpretative instrument for architectural heritage study and representation. 3D models can support a renewal of the graphical analysis and, from an educational point of view, the development of critical skills for understanding and communication of architectural characteristics.
