The publication Simply Design. Ways of Shaping Architecture discusses five chapters of architectural design relating a conscious design of our environment.

In the light of general debates about sustainability issues and building culture, the importance and relevance of aesthetics in architectural deisgn has largely become a matter of controversy. Whereas professional circles agree that aesthetic components are a source of cultural value and a fundamental concern of architecture, the way of implementation of specific issues associated therewith into the design process is highly dependent on conditions and individual action.

Simply Design. Ways of Shaping Architecture is a two-way approach to architectural design from a theoretical perspective. On the one hand, it argues for the relevance of design-related aspects while on the other hand it is a basis of their communication. Focusing on the creative process of design, a methodology is suggested that combines different approaches, strategies and means of architectural design in five thematic chapters. The topics 'Revealing Place, Programming, Forming+Joining, Choreographing, and Staging' will be presented as an open and non-hierarchical system by means of architectural projects and their larger context.

By clarifying terminologies, describing design elements and their complex interactions, the publication Simply Design. Ways of Shaping Architecture aims at finding transferable design approaches, opening up space for reflection and serving as a stimulus. This reference work addresses architecture professionals, students and enthusiasts in theory and practice.
