title	Critical Attitude toward the Footstep of Googie Architecture on Parametric Architecture
source	Digital Crafting [7th International Conference Proceedings of the Arab Society for Computer Aided Architectural Design (ASCAAD 2014 / ISBN 978-603-90142-5-6], Jeddah (Kingdom of Saudi Arabia), 31 March - 3 April 2014, pp. 109-118
summary	Advent of machinery age, altering in human needs and lifestyle has changed the pattern of architecture. This pattern is in close relation with different environmental, contextual, behavioral and theoretical aspects of dwellers. With a glance to the history of design, in 1940s the new style of architecture came up which was called Googie architecture. It was a movement of modern architecture, a subdivision of futurist architecture influenced by car culture and the Space Age. This style was alive up to mid-1960s but in its short life, it put a big impact on the appearance of the cities and buildings. Furthermore, in recent years the new style of architecture named Parametricism has started to take shape and accordingly the formal appearance is very close to Googie architecture. Also parametric architecture is out birth of technology and the idea of communication and futurism. The research is questioning the characteristics of parametric and Googie architecture with scrutinizing the origins and main gestures of these styles in society and culture of the period that they exist in. the research tries to figure out failures of Googie style in its own period and parallel to this, it give suggestions to implement and transform qualitative parameters in the design process by means of adapting pattern language in design process, applying parametric design thinking and simplexity in design systems.

title	Thermocatalytic Metafolds
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.acadia.2015.057
source	ACADIA 2105: Computational Ecologies: Design in the Anthropocene [Proceedings of the 35th Annual Conference of the Association for Computer Aided Design in Architecture (ACADIA) ISBN 978-0-692-53726-8] Cincinnati 19-25 October, 2015), pp. 57-67
summary	Thermocatalytic Metafolds comprises a paper-based fabrication process that initiates ascetic self-assembly via heat application. Metafolds utilizes a composite material of paper with a selectively applied shape-changing polymer crafted via a multi-step computational, two-dimensional drafting fabrication method. Upon heat application, the paper self-folds into predetermined, three-dimensional, highly accurate, rigid shapes. The final product maintains a notable resilience to alteration, and the stringency of form serves as a testament to the process’ potential to transform the ways in which design is undertaken. This exploration of material properties has cumulated in a process that demonstrates a design based on a detailed understanding of how the composite material behaves under specific conditions.

title	Utilization of Simulation Tools in Early Design Phases Through Adaptive Detailing Strategies
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2018.2.011

summary	Decisions taken at early stages of building design have a significant effect on the planning steps for the entire lifetime of the project as well as the performance of the building throughout its lifecycle (MacLeamy 2004). Building Information Modelling (BIM) could bring forward and enhance the planning and decision-making processes by enabling the direct reuse of data hold by the model for diverse analysis and simulation tasks (Borrmann et al. 2015). The architect today besides a couple of simplified simulation tools almost exclusively uses his know-how for evaluating and comparing design variants in the early stages of design. This paper focuses on finding new ways to facilitate the use of analytical and simulation tools during the important early phases of conceptual building design, where the models are partially incomplete. The necessary enrichment and proper detailing of the design model could be achieved by means of dialogue-based interaction concepts with analytical and simulation tools through adaptive detailing strategies. This concept is explained using an example scenario for design process. A generic description of the aimed dialog-based interface to various simulation tools will also be discussed in this paper using an example scenario.

title	Interaction with analysis and simulation methods via minimized computer-readable BIM-based communication protocol
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2019.1.241
source	Sousa, JP, Xavier, JP and Castro Henriques, G (eds.), Architecture in the Age of the 4th Industrial Revolution - Proceedings of the 37th eCAADe and 23rd SIGraDi Conference - Volume 1, University of Porto, Porto, Portugal, 11-13 September 2019, pp. 241-250
summary	The early stages of building design are characterized by a continuous endeavor for the development of variants and their evaluation and consistent detailing. The concept of adaptive detailing aims to enable the architect to evaluate and compare design variants which are partially incomplete and vague (Zahedi and Petzold 2018b). This paper discusses a minimized communication protocol based on BIM, which enables computer-readable interactions between the architect and different domain-experts (representing various analysis and simulation procedures) (Zahedi and Petzold 2018a). This comprises the selection of simulation procedures as well as any necessary consolidation of the information content according to the requirements of the simulations. Any additions required on the part of the simulation procedures are visually prepared globally or space-and component-oriented respectively, in order to perform detailing of a building model in a targeted way. Moreover, this paper proposes various supportive methods for visual representation and exploration of analysis results.

title	Revit Add-In for Documenting Design Decisions and Rationale, a Bim-Based Tool to Capture Tacit Design Knowledge and Support Its Reuse
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2022.2.557
source	Jeroen van Ameijde, Nicole Gardner, Kyung Hoon Hyun, Dan Luo, Urvi Sheth (eds.), POST-CARBON - Proceedings of the 27th CAADRIA Conference, Sydney, 9-15 April 2022, pp. 557-566
summary	The building design is a problem-solving process in which the demands of the customer are turned into a design job. Throughout the design process, several specialists from various fields cooperate to develop the final design. The key deliverables that are exchanged and passed over are the generated designs. However, no explanation of design intentions or evidence of argumentations behind the design decisions is included in the design deliverables. Design documentation helps with communication and coordination between designers and other domain experts and stakeholders. Proper design documentation also preserves and protects corporate design knowledge and makes it available for future design problems and projects. This paper presents the implementation of an add-in for Revit that features the concepts of so-called Explanation Tags and Design Episodes to digitally explain and document design rationale and decisions, and ultimately capture the tacit design knowledge. As an extra feature, the add-in also enables the export of design episodes to a Graph-Database (Neo4j) as well as CSV files for future reference and use. Subsequently, the goal is to search and query inside the graph database for similar designs that can solve and answer the new design tasks in the future. This paper contributes to the UN Sustainable Development Goals, namely SDG 9 & SDG 11 among others.
