summary	This paper discusses parametricism in regards to urban planning and infrastructure. The objective is to bridge GIS data (using FLUX) and the parametric design process together into urban master planning. Creating a tool which generates the infrastructure and grid system automatically using specified manual user inputs, allowing for further generation of 3D forms from the block patterns. It also critically analyses the traditional master planning approach of grid system division in regards to topography, and how classical urban designers did not consider topographical constraints when a square grid system was employed to structure a city. The analysis of existing parametric master plans will also show that data driven planning has not put topography as a significant hierarchical. Through case studies using the developed tool, a clearer understanding of how topography can shape infrastructure can be understood. The analysis of topography is the main driving data iteration point which generates the infrastructure, grid, and division systems.

title	Investigating Visibility Properties in the Design of Aged-Care Facilities
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2017.365
source	P. Janssen, P. Loh, A. Raonic, M. A. Schnabel (eds.), Protocols, Flows, and Glitches - Proceedings of the 22nd CAADRIA Conference, Xi'an Jiaotong-Liverpool University, Suzhou, China, 5-8 April 2017, pp. 365-374
summary	This paper uses a Space Syntax approach - a computational and mathematical method using graph-based measurements - to undertake a comparative assessment of the visibility properties of three architectural plans with unusual spatial requirements. Specifically, the method is used to compare the spatio-visual properties of an idealised plan for a residential aged-care facility with the actual plans used for two facilities. The purpose of this analysis is to begin to examine the ways in which syntactical values and isovist properties can be used to capture spatial and social characteristics of plans designed for the physical and cognitive needs of an ageing populace. The application of this approach seeks to support a better understanding of the relationship between spaces and their social properties in the design of aged-care facilities.
