This study consists of five chapters and further chapters of the thesis are organized as follows: In the second chapter, entitled “Computer Aided Architectural Design”, overall information about CAAD is given. First, the development of CAAD parallel to the development of computers is represented. Here, CAAD software are classified as general purpose and domain specific. Then, the use of computers in interior architectural design and how it affected the way architects and interior architects work are explained. Lastly, the CAAD software used in interior architecture are discussed within the previously introduced classifications. The third chapter which is entitled as “Critical Analysis of CAAD Software Used in Interior Architecture” contains the analysis part of the thesis and comprises of two main parts. In the first part, comparative analysis of software packages are specified including detailed analysis of CAAD objects and operations used in CAAD software, and analysis of features of general purpose and domain specific software. General purpose CAAD software that are selected and analyzed are AutoCAD 1 , 3D Studio 2 MAX and ArchiCAD 3 in terms of their being produced by the leading companies in 2D drawing, 3D modeling and building information modeling (BIM), and also being the most commonly utilized packages in the world and especially in Turkey. Moreover, domain specific CAAD software, such as Giotto, Arcon 4 and WebDekor 5 1 AutoCAD is a registered trademark of AutoDesk. 2 3D Studio MAX is a registered trademark of AutoDesk. 3 ArchiCAD is a registered trademark of GraphiSoft. 4 Arcon is a registered trademark of Eleco. 5 WebDekor is a registered trademark of Virtual Décor. 5
are chosen for their different purposes of use in interior architecture; such as kitchen, bathroom and ceramics design. In the second part, analyses of the user preferences are examined. These analyses include questionnaires with the students and interviews with the professionals. The assumptions over students and professionals, sample groups and contents, and the findings of the questionnaires and interviews are also given. The fourth chapter of the thesis, entitled “Proposed Model”, covers the features and quality attributes of the proposed model. In this chapter, based on the previous analyses and findings, an extensive model is developed and introduced. The presentation of the model is followed by discussions, where a self-assessment about the proposed model is made. The final and conclusive chapter of the thesis highlights the important points of the analysis, the gathered data and the proposed model. The contribution of this study to literature and suggestions for further work are mentioned here. This chapter is followed by a list of references and appendices. The appendices include the questionnaire and interviews, and present the information about the general purpose and domain specific software packages used in interior architectural education and practice. 6
