✦ Synopsis

I n the early conceptual stage of the design process, it is typical for an engineer or architect, for example, to use various relatively unstructured forms of pictorial representation such as sketches. As the design develops, other more structured forms of pictorial representation, such as plans or sections, become a part of the process. The use of these forms of pictorial representation have long been considered to be an essential part of the design process and the more unstructured forms to be related to creativity and innovation in design (see, for example Herbert 1 ). Empirical evidence regarding these beliefs is however relatively sparse. This applies to both the general question of the role that pictorial representation plays
