Drawing/Modelling

If drawing/modelling in design process is about testing and hypothesizing, is it like or unlike scientific method?

Well, I'm not quite sure! In scientific method* some experiments should be done. There should be some observations and measuring.It's said that this method is step by step and in each step, everything should be totally clear and repeatable. You should be able to predict the result. Looks acceptable! There are some hypotheses in one hand and you are gonna have the results and the predictions on the other hand by gathering information and using them in a scientific way.
Let's consider drawing or modelling. Is it possible to limit all aspects of modelling a building or a landscape project in a formula? Although there are many engineering standards for modelling and designing, there is no specific rule to define a creative building. There are always books or magazines talking about the best buildings or masterpieces. Surely there is nothing to wait for. It's about imagination and creation. It's exactly "to infinity and beyond!".
However modelling is based on some procedures and it's not totally conceptual, scientific method is searching for a specific or a group of specific results , to say the least. There is no specific idea for the last model.
By the way, I think drawing is kinda similar to scientific method, simply because it is based on experiment and testing different ideas. But there is no unique result in drawing, as it continues forever. Always there is a possibility to make it better.

Coming back!!!

Finally I started studying MA Landscape Architecture, here in Writtle Collge.
I should talk about some aspects of landscape architecture here. I should think about it first!!!
Landscape in thought and image!
I'm thinking!!!!


maybe I come back after drinking a cup of coffee!!!

I should think more!!!
