Architectural analysis of buildings in order to choice new functional destinations: an application of computer graphics for Faculty of Architecture\u27s students

Abstract

The research tries to give a little but meaningful answer to the specific context of the Faculty of Architecture of Naples. Such a context presents a delay of teachers and researchers, in their teaching and researching activity, in beginning the CAAD way. Often the delay is due to a wrong attitude: a too high or too low expectation towards the use of the computer. In such a situation, the chief target of the research is the student of architecture. It is possible and useful to address a clear message, by a simple educational material, just to the student of architecture, not necessarily by producing a software or modifying some existing one, but also applying a given available software to an important architectural question.
