This paper reports on the Furniture Design Critic. We propose a computational model of design critiquing using the program, which as a research tool helps us explain how to select critiquing methods in the consideration of critiquing conditions. Surveying the literature of architectural education, we have identified two dimensions from critiquing comments: (1) delivery types (interpretation, introduction/reminder, example, demonstration, and evaluation) and (2) communication modalities (written comments, graphical annotations, and images). This paper also presents how the Furniture Design Critic system selects particular methods by considering specific conditions such as the user's knowledge level and the interaction history between the user and the system.
