Abstract

This paper describes the process used to develop a framework to produce thermal simulation post- processed information and data representation systems meaningful to design decision making. The framework comes from reverse engineering an empirical data set in which designers were invited to propose meaningful building thermal physics information to design decision making when requested to solve a design problem specifically tailored for this purpose. A combination of: Interaction Design. Information Visualization and Qualitative research methods from Social Science were used to undertake the analysis. Tins enabled theoretical aspects involved in how building designers solve design problems also to be taken into consideration
