Résumé	Wayfinding Analysis is a method for assessing how easily people can navigate and orient themselves in buildings and urban environments. Rooted in Kevin Lynch's concept of legibility and developed further by Romedi Passini, it combines cognitive psychology, design principles, and empirical testing to diagnose navigation difficulties and design intuitive navigation systems.	Post-Occupancy Evaluation (POE) is a systematic method for assessing how well a completed building meets the needs and expectations of its occupants, comparing planned performance to actual performance. Formalized by Wolfgang Preiser in the 1980s, POE has become essential for learning what design strategies work, identifying problems for remediation, and improving future projects.	Urban Form Analysis is a systematic method for studying and characterizing the physical structure, layout, and historical development of cities and neighborhoods. Pioneered by M.R.G. Conzen in 1960, it examines how blocks, streets, plots, and buildings combine to create distinct urban patterns, and how these patterns influence social interaction, economic vitality, and environmental performance.
