Explanation of Mapping Techniques in Conversion Design Process: A Phenomenological Approach to the Sensory Perceptions

Selection of appropriate method and developing models and writing new rules for data analysis in an architectural project in order to achieve the design idea are some of the factors that influence the course of the design process. If the design is based on philosophical theories and phenomenological approach, perceptions and senses and at the same time, deals with the issue of conversion of phenomenon to matter, there will be a need for a process that is designed, new and responsive to the issues of the design. In this regard, the cognition and selection of method and selected techniques is done according to the new models, but on the basis of the documentation and basic information related to the principal theories. The design process will be based on several main parts and specific subgroups. The purpose of this study is to evaluate two main parts of the process and design approach. These two parts and the role of each in the design process with a phenomenology approach has been analyzed and reviewed. And finally, the operation of one of the strategic techniques in the design process with a phenomenology view called “mapping technique” is considered. As a result of this study, a model for the design process with phenomenology approach has been presented, the main basis of which is dealing directly with phenomena.
