title	Parametric Design and Structural Optimisation for Early Design Exploration
source	International Journal of Architectural Computing vol. 5 - no. 4, pp. 625-643
summary	The investigation presented in this paper focuses on the following questions: How can engineering and architectural expertise, assisted by a process of digital optimisation, promote structural awareness regarding design alterations in the conceptual design stages? Can building geometry be set up computationally to render it sensitive to structural input? Which software tools are required to foster this interaction and what kind of decision support is needed to allow both architects and structural engineers to interact concurrently in this optimisation process? The authors of this paper form a team of researchers and practitioners from architectural and structural engineering background who combine their efforts to address the issue of interconnecting design intelligence across disciplines and advancing revised work methodologies in practice assisted by academic research. The research has shown that an integrated transfer of design information between architectural and structural designers in the early stages is beneficial to the collaboration if experts from both professions agree on common goals and define suitability rules that guide optimisation processes from the very beginning. To enable this, software tools are required that provide ad hoc decision support to create a wider array of informed design alternatives from which to choose.

title	Linking Parametric Design and Structural Analysis to Foster Transdisciplinary Design Collaboration
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2007.x.c6q

summary	The investigation presented in this paper focuses on the following questions: How can engineering and architectural expertise guide a process of digital optimisation and add structural ‘awareness’ in real time to aesthetic considerations (or vice versa)? How can building geometry be set up computationally in order to render it ‘sensitive’ to structural input? Which tools are required to foster this interaction? The authors of this paper form a team of researchers and practitioners from architectural and engineering background who combine their efforts to address the issue of interconnecting design intelligence across disciplines and advancing work methodologies in practice assisted by academic research. A live case study project is presented as a test scenario in order to find answers the above questions.

summary	Building design is a process often divorced from considerations about construction. Digital design methods are increasingly challenging the historic relationship between architecture and its means of production, but this extended reach is not necessarily accompanied by extended understanding or leverage of the production process. We present an urban sculptural project, The Travellers, in which digital techniques resolved critical issues of design, documentation and fabrication, but more importantly facilitated highly beneficial processes of negotiation. We suggest that this case based research has implications for future interactions between designers, makers and managers, shedding additional light onto issues of negotiation, responsibility, risk and trust that are often critical to the pragmatic undertaking of making.

title	Import As: Interpretation and Precision Tools
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2007.x.g6n
source	CAADRIA 2007 [Proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Computer Aided Architectural Design Research in Asia] Nanjing (China) 19-21 April 2007
summary	This paper presents research on the relationship between digital tools and design communication, focussing on the interaction between architectural and lighting design. Early design integration often involves negotiating between different levels of resolution to inform a design that is still in formation, and part of the challenge is doing so in a manner appropriate to that phase of exploration. This paper describes some of the technical and social issues of translation and reports a project in which a generative design process supported the interaction between architectural design and lighting analysis; domains in which geometry is not necessarily a common ground.
