Architectural Kansei of ‘Wall’ in The Façade Design by Le Corbusier

Abstract

Relationship to previous research Regarding the form of Le Corbusier's façades, there already exists research on the structural methods for window opening [4] and research on the development of what he called 'le brise-soleil (the sun breaker)' devices [5, 6]. These previous research contributions do analyze the distinctive forms of the façade specific to Le Corbusier, but they do not provide a comprehensive elucidation of the varied development of the design methods of the façade in Le Corbusier's work and his design process. Regarding the Kansei research on architect, Le Corbusier, there exists already some researches on the se1f formation by journey in younger days or his idea of art [7-9]. However, they do not treat the architectural design Regarding the Kansei research on architectural space, there are less studies than on product design [10]. The main theme on building is the user evaluation [11], or the design's Kansei information system [12].

The Cognitive-Emotional Design and Study of Architectural Space: A Scoping Review of Neuroarchitecture and Its Precursor Approaches

“…Semantic differential has also been used in the context of Kansei engineering, which is a product development method that translates the underlying structure into configurations of variables [151]. It has been applied in different contexts, including the architectural [152][153][154] and urban planning [153,155].…”

User Evaluation of Neonatology Ward Design

“…Some studies have focused on specific aspects of architecture such as the design of doors (Matsubara & Nagamachi, 1997a) and kitchens (Matsubara & Nagamachi, 1997b), but there are very few studies on a broader truly architectural or urban scale. Such studies include applications to the design of facades (Sendai, 2011), dwellings (Llinares & Page, 2007; Nagamachi, 1998; Nomoto, Omura, Awada, Mamura, & Agamachi, 1995), urban environments (Kinoshita, Cooper, Hoshino, & Kamei, 2006; Llinares & Page, 2008), and the identification of differences in perception between architects and nonarchitects (Llinares, Montañana, & Navarro, 2011; Montañana, Llinares, & Navarro, 2013); although scanty, these studies show that the method is valid for determining design parameters with a positive influence on user emotions toward architecture and urban surroundings. However, to date, Kansei engineering has not been applied to healthcare spaces or neonatal wards in particular.…”

NeuroArquitectura: nuevas métricas para el diseño arquitectónico a través del uso de neurotecnologías

“…El diferencial semántico se ha utilizado en el contexto de la Ingeniería Kansei: un método de desarrollo de productos orientado al consumidor, que traduce estos conceptos en parámetros de diseño (Nagamachi, 1995). Se ha aplicado en diferentes sectores del mercado, incluyendo el arquitectónico (Kinoshita, Cooper, Hoshino, & Kamei, 2006;Sendai, 2011) y el urbano (Kinoshita et al, 2006;Llinares, Page, & Llinares, 2013). Entre las cualitativas, el focus group (grupo focal) es de utilidad para estudiar la relación entre un producto y su usuario (Morgan & Krueger, 1998) cuando, como en la mayoría de casos de diseño, hay una literatura limitada (Hsieh & Shannon, 2005).…”

“…In order to parameters (Mitsuo Nagamachi, 1995). It has been applied in different market sectors, including architectural (Kinoshita, Cooper, Hoshino, & Kamei, 2006;Sendai, 2011) and urban (Kinoshita et al, 2006;Llinares, Page, & Llinares, 2013). Among the qualitative ones, the focus group is useful to study the relationship between a product and its user (Morgan & Krueger, 1998) when, as in most design cases, there is limited literature (Hsieh & Shannon, 2005).…”

“…Semantic differential has also been used in the context of Kansei engineering, a product development method that translates the underlying structure into configurations of variables (Nagamachi, 1995). It has been applied in different contexts, including the architectural (Higuera-Trujillo, Montañana i Aviñó, & Llinares Millán, 2017;Kinoshita et al, 2006;Sendai, 2011) and urban planning (Kinoshita et al, 2006;Llinares et al, 2013).…”
