10. Design phases of architectural design

11. Design phases of architectural design
Pre-design phase is often referred to as ‘programming’.
According to *Duerk (1993), architectural programming
is “the systematic process of gathering and analyzing information about a building or other setting, and then
using that information to create guidelines for the performance of that setting.”
Programming is also defined as “consultation to
establish and document the following detailed
requirements for a project” (AIA 1993).
In general, pre-design is a problem-seeking stage.
