NASLOV: Investigating the impact of different techniques towards project users themselves in a new environment using their cognitive, emotional and actionable responses
-------------------------------------------------------
POVZETEK: 

This study is mainly focused on investigating how the different techniques which architects would use to convey their ideas of architectural designs (new building) enable future occupants/users to project themselves in their new building.
To do that, we compare three different presentation techniques:
- Floor plans (paper-based) with 3D rendered still images of the building
- Standard desktop/mouse setup showing the 3D designed environment of the building
- HMD display showing the immersive virtual environment of the building
The reason behind this evaluation is to compare current practices/conventional method (Floor plans with 3D rendered still images) vs methods that could be widespread in the near future (Desktop and HMD). These innovative techniques may have some benefits, notably by triggering a higher sense of presence. But we need to be sure that they enable future occupants/users to understand their new building and that they also enable them to project themselves in their new space.
