Articulation entre composantes verbale et graphico-gestuelle de l'interaction dans des r\'{e}unions de conception architecturale

TL;DR

This paper investigates how verbal and graphico-gestural components interact during collaborative architectural design, analyzing modalities and articulation modes to better understand design communication processes.

Contribution

It introduces a classification of articulation modes between verbal and graphico-gestural modalities in architectural design interactions.

Findings

Identifies two main articulation modes: integrated and parallel activities.

Provides a framework for analyzing multimodal interactions in design meetings.

Highlights the importance of external representations in collaborative design.

Abstract

This study is focused on the role of external representations, e.g., skteches, in collaborative architectural design. In particular, we analyse (1) the use of graphico-gestural modalities and, (2) the articulation modes between graphico-gestural and verbal modalities in design interaction. We have elaborated a first classification which distinguishes between two modes of articulation, articulation in integrated activities versus articulation in parallel activities.
