摘要

As computational design becomes increasingly integrated into architectural education, balancing technical complexity with creative exploration remains a challenge. This study presents a web-based framework supporting architectural design studios through computational tools. Three applications—ANYSite, NEXUSpace, and SnapRender—assist in plot subdivision, spatial layout generation, and AI-augmented visualization. Implemented in a design studio, these tools provide structured guidance, lower learning barriers, and enhance engagement with computational methods. The study evaluates the effectiveness of these tools by analyzing student projects and feedback. Findings suggest that systematic workflow and task-oriented tool functions help students focus on design strategies while integrating computational techniques. This research contributes to architecture pedagogy by demonstrating how web-based tools can make computational design more accessible and interactive in architectural education.
