Usage of CAD has been done a role of substituting pens and scales. However, the rapid development of the hardware and the software presented possibilities for intelligent high-tech systems in architectural design. Though my study, I considered the process of architectural design as a general human process of thinking, and picked decision elements for architectural design and applied them to the intelligence system of regular models. In addition, I adopted prototype of flexible floorplan system and tried to use it for subsidiary design system. I could get several outputs from my study. First, I could develop several necessary steps, which should be done during architecture design, possible application in terms of knowledge engineering. But the method of expression to express it and systematic classification of architectural knowledge was necessary for the possible application. Although the study was proceeded by using the regular models which are rather easy to use, we could reach the conclusion that it was very difficult to make query knowledge , uneasy to express, for regular models in the actual process. By the way, it seemed a little possible to make it regular models by using frame, semantic networks, object oriented express. Second, on taking into a consideration of accepting this system for actual process of early phase architectural design, we recognized the need of classifing the decision elements for the design. Third, in the process of modifying these systems with new knowledge and adding more information to them a new interface was needed for the efficiency of performance. In order to make these study more practical further question following should be solved. First, though this study was concentrated on the unit plan for practical application, the range of the study needed to be enlarged to total floor plan. Second, the study of high reliant method for classifying knowledge and information to built the system was necessarily needed. Third, to avoid a monotonous and uniformed pattern of systematic approach, more heuristic study was needed for the future. Finally, we need to search out methods which are able to be used in other fields of these intelligence system.
