Abstract
The fundamental concepts are chosen in the sketch phase of architectural projects. However the evaluations of technical qualities of buildings by specialists usually take place much later. This complicates the integration of corrections, makes them expensive and may decrease the architectural quality. To overcome this difficulty, we intend to study the transformations of architectural objects during design and to structure experts’ methods to integrate them into the design, using the language of architects. To take into account the incomplete and imprecise aspect of the available data in the sketch phase, we use fuzzy sets and multivalued logics. To illustrate our approach, we will take the example of experts’ methods in daylighting.
