Contemporary architectural workshop is characterized by the ability to efficiently collect and process huge amounts of geometric and non-geometric information. Virtual substitutes for buildings and structures allow to analyze various aspects of real life activity at various stages of the design process. The possibility of increased prognostic quantitative data acquisition, such as cost of energy consumption, shifts architectural practice towards rationalizing design decisions and multi-criteria objectivization. The article presents a view in the discussion on the importance of digital tools for building energy modelling and daylight simulation in the initial conceptual design phase for shaping architectural intuition and empowering design decisions. Issues related to the methodology of digital design, along with the possibilities and limitations of currently available tools tailored to the needs of architects will be discussed.
