title SURF_TM: A SURFACE SYNTHESIZER FOR ARCHITECTURAL FORMS

summary Parametric equation is one of the possible ways to generate free-form architecture in modern age. When working with mathematical software, designers need a way to bring surface mesh to CAD for further design. Surf_TM is an supplemental tool for AutoCAD to import and manipulate surface mesh data from Mathcad. Accompanying with a course taught in Harvard Design School, students gain knowledge in mathematics and use parametric equation as a design tool. This paper elaborates details of the course, the tool, how they work together, and example applications.
