One will be about precedents and their usage in the design process, analogically; and second will be an example of a comparative (architectural) precedent analysis of two buildings of...

Precedent analysis in landscape architecture: In search of an analytical framework

The goal is generic design knowledge that can be of use in day-to-day practice and theory development. The core issue in this paper is how the successful approach of precedent analysis in architecture developed by...
