Abstract
This paper proposes a methodological approach to knowledge acquisition and modelling. The source of the knowledge is considered to be an expert designer. The content of this paper focuses on the knowledge acquisition phase, which includes a method to interview an expert to obtain a model of his/her experience-based knowledge in a systematic manner. A model of the design process and synthesis knowledge is used as guideline. The scope is parametric design with available knowledge: routine variant and adaptive design.
