summary Digital technologies and contemporary CAAD systems are increasingly being adopted in architectural practice. Thus, their impacts on buildings design process need to be addressed and explored, as there are signs of a potential revolution in AEC industry. This paper presents a methodology and preliminary results of a work-in-progress for a Master of Science dissertation. The main purpose of the study is to find similarities in practice in order to determine main characteristics and fundamentals of contemporary design process. It consists of a design praxiology approach according to Cross' taxonomy of design research. Three project cases developed by digital processes and explored by secondary data from literature reviews, complemented by documentary research, are presented as preliminary results, as well as their main similarities. Through the analysis of the cases, it was verified that the presence of BIM, parametric modeling and digital fabrication overlaps and promotes holistic and largely collaborative design processes. The role of collaboration is highlighted, which was presented as a key factor for the success of the projects. Future results from the described methodology should allow a more detailed and in-depth characterization of the contemporary design process.

title Impressions of a touristic route: between the null-dimensional and the three-dimensional
source SIGraDi 2018 [Proceedings of the 22nd Conference of the Iberoamerican Society of Digital Graphics - ISSN: 2318-6968] Brazil, São Carlos 7 - 9 November 2018, pp. 638-643
summary This paper reports the experience of a public university digital manufacturing laboratory in producing tactile models to support a tourist route in a historic center. The report includes the reflection on the social and formative, cultural and professional meaning attributed to this production. For this, it uses the theory of the climbing of abstraction, by Vilém Flusser, problematizing the dimensional logic of the media used. This is the representation of the architectural set of the surroundings of a square. Architecture students were involved in the production of the models which were validated by visually impaired individuals.

title White Cube in Evolution: Lighting and Digital Technology in Beyeler Foundation Architecture
source SIGraDi 2018 [Proceedings of the 22nd Conference of the Iberoamerican Society of Digital Graphics - ISSN: 2318-6968] Brazil, São Carlos 7 - 9 November 2018, pp. 52-59
summary This document aims to analyze the lighting system design at the Beyeler Foundation, which is controlled by digital devices. The domination of light is considered its architectural achievement, which generates a peculiar spatial effect. The discussion draws on the white cube concept, as applied in exhibition spaces, on the notion of device, as proposed by Flusser, and on the black box expounded by Latour's theory. The design is understood as the evolution of the white cube, since it maintains the premise of neutral space, but also remains open to the external environment through a glass roof equipped with computerized shutters.

title Facade hollow brick (cobogó) 3D scanning: natural light admission analysis and comparison with original digital 3D model.
source SIGraDi 2018 [Proceedings of the 22nd Conference of the Iberoamerican Society of Digital Graphics - ISSN: 2318-6968] Brazil, São Carlos 7 - 9 November 2018, pp. 596-601
summary The cobogó is a hollow brick used for light and ventilation control, besides having an important aesthetic function. With computer graphics, 3d digital models can be used during the design process to verify these functions. Thus, the goal of this paper is to compare and analyze the different digital 3D models obtained (built virtually or through 3D scanning) of a cobogó existing in the Brazilian market, so that visual and lighting differences can be observed, and how these differences can impact the design process.

title Aplicability of 2D and 3D isovists and visibility graph analysis for evaluating urban vulnerability to crime: the case of Boa Viagem, in Recife
source SIGraDi 2018 [Proceedings of the 22nd Conference of the Iberoamerican Society of Digital Graphics - ISSN: 2318-6968] Brazil, São Carlos 7 - 9 November 2018, pp. 308-315
summary This work aims to investigate the applicability of 2D and 3D isovists, as well as Visibility Graph Analysis (VGA), for evaluating urban vulnerability to crime. The methodology is based on correlations between number of crime occurrences and measurements of 2D and 3D isovists, and mean values of visual integration (VGA). The 2D isovists were produced through DeCoding Spaces Toolbox for Grasshopper and the 3D isovists were generated by using algorithms within Rhinoceros and Grasshopper. VGA maps were elaborated within DepthmapX. For this study, were selected nine street segments of Boa Viagem, located in Recife-PE, a neighbourhood which is known for high rates of robberies. Although the number of samples is reduced, the results suggest that criminals prefer much more visually integrated spaces with low occlusivity and fewer spatial cavities.

title Parametric design of shells in reinforced concrete: a case study of the Los Manantiales
source SIGraDi 2018 [Proceedings of the 22nd Conference of the Iberoamerican Society of Digital Graphics - ISSN: 2318-6968] Brazil, São Carlos 7 - 9 November 2018, pp. 183-190
summary In this article it is proposed a study of reinforced concrete shells modeling, taking as case study the shell roof building designed by Candela in Xochimilco, Los Manantiales. The approach for this study is related to the comprehension of both project methodologies: the one before the use of the new emerging technologies and the one after. The objective of this study is to measure the structural efficiency of shells designed by both approaches and, simultaneously, how the emergence of new computational technologies and software’s could influence in the design process in the civil engineering and architecture’s design.

title Research pavilions: contributions to the advancement of digital technologies, tectonics and materials in architecture
source SIGraDi 2018 [Proceedings of the 22nd Conference of the Iberoamerican Society of Digital Graphics - ISSN: 2318-6968] Brazil, São Carlos 7 - 9 November 2018, pp. 708-713
summary This paper presents partial results of a research dedicated to the architectural typology of temporary pavilions, focused in research pavilions developed by academic research groups. The relevance of these pavilions is evidenced for the development of new paradigms of design, as well as of the constructive possibilities offered by advanced technologies of digital manufacturing, like robotic arms. These innovative processes have been transported from the academy to the professional branch, but still in a timely application. However, they have already had a profound impact on the academic research institutions, adding a significant theoretical/ practical contribution to the contemporary architectural field.

title Design synthesis and performance: simulation, discussion and generative strategies
source SIGraDi 2018 [Proceedings of the 22nd Conference of the Iberoamerican Society of Digital Graphics - ISSN: 2318-6968] Brazil, São Carlos 7 - 9 November 2018, pp. 625-630
summary Since the publication of the book Performance architecture: beyond instrumentality (KOLAREVIC and MALKAWI,2004), architects have used a good performance as a guideline for the projects. This research proposes to investigate the possibilities and limitations of one of the guidelines through the incorporation of instantaneous aerodynamics in the parametric design context, from the use of parametric modeling techniques, electronic microcontrollers and computational extensions to promote the connection between them. From the construction of this artifact, we expect to develop strategies for including performance simulations in the processes of synthesis in architecture.

title The use of parametric modeling and rapid prototyping in teaching graphic expression
source SIGraDi 2018 [Proceedings of the 22nd Conference of the Iberoamerican Society of Digital Graphics - ISSN: 2318-6968] Brazil, São Carlos 7 - 9 November 2018, pp. 383-389
summary The introduction of new technologies in design areas is due, in large part, to the rapid development of the computer industry. This new paradigm has created tools and creative possibilities in the routine of several professionals. The Graphic Expression Department is responsible for disciplines that include the knowledge of Graphical Geometry and different approaches to graphically represent projects from different areas of knowledge. Thus, the present experiment presents a possibility of updating the teaching of representation from the introduction of Shape Grammar and through digital tools, in particular, the use of parametric design, visual programming and rapid prototyping.
