... This paper describes an evolving platform of tools to improve the design spaces that will enable a more sustainable built future. INTRODUCTION Design research in the twentieth century oscillated between a view of design as a discipline and as science (Cross, 2001)

... Project teams lack sociotechnical platforms and methodologies that allow them to relate all of these new methods and information to effectively and efficiently construct and explore larger, better design spaces. Many research fields are relevant to developing this new platform, including organizational theory and social networking, design theory and methodol ogy, building information and process modeling, model-based analysis, multidisciplinary design optimization, decision science, human-computer interaction, economics, and artificial intelligence.

... HOW TO MEASURE DESIGN PROCESSES To improve design processes, it is necessary to model and measure them. Design theory and methodology, process modeling, lean construction, and deci sion analysis provide the foundation for methods and metrics for describing and measuring design processes.

... Collaborative design generation processes help teams create and manage alternative spaces. Perspectors help teams assemble graphs of geometric transformations that generate and manage dependent geometric designs (Haymaker et al., 2004)

... For example, Filter Mediated Design investigates the feasibility of multiple designers and agents collaborating using various interaction protocols around a central model (Haymaker et al., 2000) , whereas Process Integration and Design Optimization enables the wrapping and orchestration of commercial tools in a workflow (Flager et al., 2009)
