Description Studies on blindfolded designers/architects have thrown light on their amazing abilities of creating a virtual model in their mind's eye and physically interacting and manipulating it. However, these studies suffer from the limitations that the interactions were highly restricted by the experimental settings. This paper explores the potentials of blindfolded architects using their body to interact with the virtual architectural spaces that they create in their mind's eye while designing. The results reveal two major strategies used by architects, moving the visualizations in sync with the bodies and moving within the fixed visualizations. The paper also details the nuances of how architects interacted with these visualizations.
