Challenge and choice   I am a student in architecture, as we design different buildings, and this major requires  design thinking with its various tools. We often use the photography tool because it  simplifies ideas and most importantly, everyone can understand them, even with  different languages, as they are illustrations or pictures.   We collect information and simplify it in the form of photographs or illustrations, then  annotate these images, analyze them, and then draw conclusions in the form of  drawings or pictures as well.   We started out as a team. We were asked to design a new school in an old school   setting, and the design had to be adequate in form and function.     The application   First, we started searching and investigating similar examples of schools to study their  form and function, and after we gathered information about different schools, we  presented them in the form of pictures, illustrations, and some information that we  had collected,  and we arranged them in terms of form, operation and performance,  i.e. we put a picture of a specific place in one of the schools that we studied. Then we  draw or put an illustration of how this place is operating and then another drawing or  picture to evaluate the performance of this operation (look at picture 1) After that we  presented all of this and discussed it with professors who are experts in this field and a  group of students, where the drawings and pictures allow them to understand the data  in an easy and simple way And then give their observations and opinions.    Then we studied the site in which the school will be built, where we collected data on  the region’s climate, the movement of the sun, the best roads leading to it, the traffic  congestion and the population density in that area, and we also studied the schools  near the project site in terms of their capacity for students and the type of school if it  was primary, intermediate or Secondary, whether they are girls ', boys' or mixed  schools, to find out where the shortage lies and what kind of school we need the most  in that region. We also studied the level of the land and the type and shape of nearby  buildings, and collected all this information in the form of pictures or simple  illustrations, for example:

Example Reflection – Visualization

Thus, we simplified the data so that everyone could understand it without effort.  Then we hung these drawings and pictures of the site analysis and discussed them  with expert professors and a group of architecture students in order to express their  opinions with the best solutions. We discussed this data 3 times and each time we  take into account the opinions of the professors  And notice them, then we  reanalyze, and then discuss again.     After that, we extracted some results in the form of drawings. For example, we drew  how the  building blocks (the school) would look, for example, the side that has  strong winds has small windows.   As for places close to noise, we decided to have playgrounds and patios. As for  classrooms and the library, we decided to place them in places quieter than the plot  of land, and we also took into account the direction of the seasons so that they get  enough natural light and have indirect lighting. As for some places of the project land  that were close to places where the pollution and smoke of cars, we decided to put  some trees and plants in them to purify the air entering the school, and we drew all  of this as an illustration in the summary. (look at pictures 2-3-4-5).

Insight   The visualization tool is a very useful tool, as it helped us to think smoothly by  placing all the data in a simplified form in the form of pictures or drawings, then  deducing solutions and the summary in the form of pictures . It is also easy for the  non-information collector to understand this information simply and effortlessly and  even if he speaks a different language. graphics and images are a language  International, this performance helped us to arrange our ideas and come up with  good solutions.   Approach   The visualization tool is very important and useful, and we will not dispense with it  in our future projects. Nevertheless, we sometimes need other tools with it, such as  a mind mapping tool to clarify some ideas (look at picture 6).

We indicate the direction of the cold wind with blue arrows, and the hot wind  with red arrows. We also indicated places of noise near the site with a  loudspeaker. We explained the girls ’schools near the project site by drawing a  small building in pink, and the nearby boys’ schools by drawing a building in blue.
