| Abstract: | It is a commonplace to assert that architects learn design by experience. To learn design by experience is the essence of Case-Based Reasoning (CBR), a branch of Artificial Intelligence engrafted onto a memory-based view of cognition. Addressing the subject of Case-Based Reasoning in design, this paper reports on a series of in- depth interviews with expert architects/design teachers about the role of cases in design practice and education. Several ingredients of the Case-Based Design (CBD) recipe turned out to occur in real-world design, albeit in a subtler version than CBD researchers usually assume. The paper focuses primarily on design in architecture, yet the findings may be relevant for other design domains as well. |
