Holding a Bachelor degree in Architecture and a Master degree in Applied Science in Interactive Arts, I am specifically interested in the cognitive and HCI issues of application design in terms of supporting designers' intention, creativity and expertise. My research aims to observe, understand, support and augment user intention and action in parametric design systems. The users I focus on comprise active designers - more specifically, architects and civil engineers. My objective in the study is to understand the mid-level patterns of work that recur across designers and tasks.
