title	Processing architecture

summary	Programming promotes creative freedom but might require considerable effort to learn. The Processing language was created to simplify this learning process. Due to its graphical capabilities, the language has become very popular among the electronic arts and design communities. Unfortunately, this popularity could not be extended to the architecture community, which relies on traditional heavyweight computer-aided design and building information modeling applications that cannot be programmed using Processing. As a result, it becomes difficult for architects to take advantage of Processing. To solve this problem, we propose an implementation of Processing that runs in the context of the most used computer-aided design tools in architecture. Our implementation allows Processing to generate two- or three-dimensional models that are directly usable for architectural work. To this end, we also propose extensions to the language, including three-dimensional modeling primitives that dramatically simplify the effort needed for developing large and complex architectural models with Processing.

summary	Although programming was considered a specialized task in the past, we have been witnessing an increasing use of algorithms in the architectural field, which has opened up a wide range of new design possibilities. This was possible in part due to programming languages that were designed to be easy to learn and use by designers and architects, such as Processing. Processing is widely used for academic purposes, whereas in the architectural practice it is not as used as other programming languages due to its limitations for 3D modeling. In this paper, we describe the use of an extended Processing implementation to generate three 3D models inspired in existing case studies, which can be visualized and edited in different CAD and BIM applications.

title	DrAFT: an Algorithmic Framework for Facade Design
source	Herneoja, Aulikki; Toni Österlund and Piia Markkanen (eds.), Complexity & Simplicity - Proceedings of the 34th eCAADe Conference - Volume 1, University of Oulu, Oulu, Finland, 22-26 August 2016, pp. 465-474

summary	Architecture has always followed the times and their innovations and, currently, an architecture based on digital technologies has been emerging and has increasingly explored architectural facades. In this paper we use DrAFT, a computational framework for the generation and exploration of facade designs, to explore a set of different examples of building skins. DrAFT includes a classification of facades that helps in the identification of algorithms that best suits each design intent. After combining the algorithms provided by this framework, the designer can more easily explore the solution space of the intended design.
