Parametric Design in Architecture

As an algorithm-based method merging the design intent with the design outcome, Parametric design has been the most debated design approach among architects. It catches almost everyone’s attention by forming complicated geometries and structures through the interplay of elements. Therefore, this video explains the popular question of what is parametric design. The video explores the origins of parametric design and its applications, including the earliest instances of parametric design in history, major contributing architects, and the most recent software of the realm.

This was a warm friendly introduction. I work day and night with parametric architecture. This is extremely familiar and natural. Parametric design is older than the computers themselves. It started long time ago even with the work of Brunelleschi's Dome.
It's an old practice that has more than 2,000 years. The application of differential geometry, differential equations and logic to design was inevitable. The Arabs and Indi where the pioneers of these techniques.
Great video as usual.

Also consider that before humans constructed parametric architecture we sought shelter in natural parametric architectures like trees and caves.

But whats the reason why u prefer to use it to achieve complex forms vs the traditional way of designing?
Coz i noticed people do parametric coz its a cool thing to have forms associated w the designer, but whats the foundational value to it to you personally?

best video every i have seen thanks a lot for making us understand what is parametric architecture in a easy way

I became interested in parametric modeling near the end of my career as an architectural draftsman (1977-2008). I used SketchUp from 2003 and was interested in using parametric software, but I couldn't afford it and really had no use for it, other than as a hobby interest. I've been a dyscalculic all my life and, thus, had no way of becoming an architect or an engineer, like my father was. Nevertheless, I was able to do CAD as long as I had a calculator and the measurement tools within Autocad and SketchUp. As an abstract sculptor, I have always experimented with free-form shapes and was using SketchUp to create 3D models. I would have used parametric software, but, as I said, the cost was just beyond my reach.

Just heard about this yesterday and fell in love, Thank you for the wonderful explanation

Lots of funky forms and roofs to excite the eye ; but no advance for the needs of people.

[@trollala_555]

I still want to know why people do it? Whats the foundational value is it to them to go for parametric aside from its cool looking?

[@pekkahilden6802]

Somehow you managed to forget to mention ArchiCad that came out well before Revit - first versuin was launched 1987 - and when

[@betod63]

Rhino started at least a decade and a half before Revit, just saying. Do you work for Austodesk?
