Abstract EN

In the last years of this century, many of the research centers continue to do many experimental studies with cognitive nature in the field of design process that had wide range of applications in the architectural domain, to explore how the designer think and perform during the design process and on which aspects the designer depend during that process.Thiscanbe attributed tomany causes are; the intimate need for "Corporate architecture" which became the rule of communication between the designersand clients now.

Finally, the role of computer technology asadesign tool that helps indesign processand becomes congenial to a designer's thinking and working procedures in order to grow and develop such a tool, which will be supportive for architectural field.

This paper puts forward an experimental study comparing the cognitive processes during conceptual design stage for three different types of design tasks performed by a group of architectural design students, to explore the effect of the different design tasks on the concept framework of those students during conceptual design activities.
