Dear Prof. Paul Strachan,

Thank you very much for your contribution. The thesis you suggested and
some of your works were already approached in my literature review (even
though I might occasionally need to re-read some of these works to get a
more in-depth view on the topic). As an architect, I feel that simulation
tools are evolving rapidly in terms of visual resources and engine
robustness, but we need to figure out how architects could use these tools
to solve design dilemmas (presumably, some of these tools were tailored
made for architects but are not being used by many). This 'designerly'
simulation process should have minimum impact on how designers proceed and
think in design practice and this is probably one of the focus of
my research.

Best regards,
Raoni
