Resumen:
Sumario:This study consists of extending the data analysis tools of our previous studies of Machiya houses in Kyoto, Japan, with the purpose of creating the foundations of a design method applicable in architecture in general.We will start by reviewing some basic concepts used in our research, followed by a brief analysis of the Japanese Machiya and its semantic space. After presenting the Machiya house, we will review some of the problems it faces today and how these are related to an identity problem that architecture faces today, and then explain the research goals.Next, we will present new exploratory data analysis tools to analyze the semantic space, including cluster analysis and multidimensional scaling. We will compare Sammon Mapping with Principal Component Analysis, exploring their potential uses to obtain usable information for the design of new architectural spaces.We will see the possibilities of applying the tools for analysis not only for projects based on traditional architecture, but for all types of architectural projects and the creation of new spaces.
