Abstract At the beginning of any architectural creative work, the architect faces the page fright (putting pencil to a blank page), especially when it meant to be a creative work which attempt to enrich the material world, The real process that occurs between the moment an idea is conceived and the final design of any project, is the main concern currently. This research aimed to compare and evaluate the used tools to perform thinking at the first stage of design process, conventional pen-and-paper sketching versus the digital-based tools, to identify which of them is more suitable to empower students’ inventiveness thinking, during the conceptual form generation stage of the architecture design process, in the educational sector, by performing an experiment using protocol research. To attain this aim, the linkography analysis technique was used to collect the associated data from the protocol research. The linkography approach allows for the analysis of design as a system and the tracing of design concepts and their relationships, which aided the current study’s objectives |
