Mass Customization: a critical perspective on parametric design, digital fabrication and design democratization |
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. 142-149 |
summary |
The ability of parametric design to generate variations and bespoke products, combined with the capability of digital fabrication to render this variety physical enables the mass-production of non-standard products. Several companies are adopting parametric driven digital interfaces that enable the user to change design parameters to personalize a product. This "democratization" of design - as it is being called - has multiple social, cultural, and design implications. This paper addresses the idea "design democratization" with a critical viewpoint and advocates for a different perspective of design democratization based on conversation cycles and the copying, transforming, and sharing of code. |
