SIGraDi 2020 [Proceedings of the 24th Conference of the Iberoamerican Society of Digital Graphics - ISSN: 2318-6968] Online Conference 18 - 20 November 2020, pp. 180-187 |
| summary |
Computational design, specifically parametric modeling, has played important role in reaching complex forms, optimizations and automations of design processes. In addition to using parametric technology as a tool to generate form, this article aims to discuss the potential of parametric design as a connection between theory and design activity, both in practice and in the teaching activity. To illustrate that, this paper will present results of a bigger research that used the work of the architect Christopher Alexander as a basis for the development of decision-making instruments that deal with the complexity between form and urban life.
