Introduction In February 1996, colleagues from 23 different countries spent two days talking about Doctorates in Design and Architecture. A summary of about 80 papers is included in the Conference Book. Volume 1 of the Proceedings covers 15 full length papers giving an impression of the State of the Art. The way in. which doctoral research in design is organised in different countries, the way it is financed, leading themes, criteria for selection of candidates and so on are here the main issues. Volume 2 of the Proceed- ings before you contains nearly 40 papers reflecting on doctorates in Design and Architecture, What is the essence of (research in) Architecture? What is its relation- ship with other disciplines? What are the relevant focal points for education in design and research? Volume 2 also includes the papers on the approach, progress and (provisional) results of current or recently concluded doctoral research done in this area. Design concepts, designer's strategies and methods, oeuvres of well-known architects and so on are described and discussed. The papers are grouped into cight themes. Here and there we have deviated from the sequence used during the conference to make it more coherent For each theme, the papers have been listed in alphabetical order by author's name. Research in Architecture and Other Disciplines Architecture has much in common with other disciplines: social sciences, manage- ment, operational research, history of architecture, philosophy, etc. We may well ask what the essence of architecture itself is. Brierly, Matthews and Heynen too (Volume 1) make a scrious attempt to get to the essence of architecture and architectural research. Brierly discusses the thesis, that the essence of architectural research can to an extent be identified by a process of disclaiming research which is primarily founded in dis- ciplines and methodologies other than those of architecture. Yet, that argument implies that the subject of architecture has definable values which are exclusive to the subject In reality it is often difficult to distinguish those values which are due to the nature of the discipline of architecture. The features which distinguish architecture from other disciplines tend to have indistinct boundaries. Similar statements can be found in the papers of Heynen en Neuckermans. Heynen too, argues that the essence of architecture is not easily identifiable. She believes that the study of architecture requires an initi- ation in so many different fields and disciplines that the exact focus on an autonomous reality called architecture anyhow becomes blurred. Neuckermans believes architecture can be quite easily researched provided it is approached from various angles: social, epistemological, phenomenological, technical, semantic and morphologic. So it may well be impossible to provide a definition of the precise content of
