Parametric Details of Membrane Constructions
(2016)The present paper represents a novel method of creating algorithms to accelerate and optimize the complex modeling of membrane details for designers. The Rhino® Grasshopper® software is used for the work. A set of parametric ... -
Performance-oriented Design Assisted by a Parametric Toolkit - Case study
(2016)Ongoing development of Budapest Zoo includes a Biodome building which is going to be the largest building of its kind in Europe. The Biodome was designed by Mérték Architectural Studio, supported by ABUD Engineering Ltd ... -
Responsive Interaction in Dynamic Envelopes with Mesh Tessellation
(2016)The paper will report on an ongoing experimental research collaboration to develop a conceptual architectural envelope that responds to feedback from external stimuli. The paper builds on our research on the construction ... -
Solar Envelope Optimization Method for Complex Urban Environments
(2016)Planning requirements in terms of energy efficiency and daylighting strongly contribute to shaping the layout of cities. Direct solar access is the main requirement of the right to light in Estonia. Direct sunlight hours ... -
Stereotomic Models In Architecture, A Generative Design Method to Integrate Spatial and Structural Parameters Through the Application of Subtractive Operations
(2016)This paper introduces a generative design method for architecture grounded on the stereotomic approach. The method is based on the application of the Boolean subtraction operation to integrate spatial and structural ... -
The Importance of Connectivism in Architectural Design Learning: Developing Creative Thinking
(2016)The creative thinking is an ability that should be learned and developed by teaching and practice. When these activities are elaborated into social circle and interact with different perspectives, it is possible to improve ... -
Time-based Matter: Suggesting New Formal Variables for Space Design
(2016)Presently, digitalisation has moved beyond a desktop paradigm to one of ubiquitous computing; by introducing new possibilities and dynamic materials to various design fields, e.g. product design and architecture, it allows ... -
Towards the Measurement of Perceived Architectural Qualities
(2016)“Architectural quality” is a property of the built environment that, even though often quoted, is hard to define in rigorous terms. In our work, we take a step into that direction, based on recent results in cognitive ... -
Visual Structuring for Generative Design Search Spaces Scanning Technology
(2016)With generative design strategies, the act of design, the problem-solving process, and the interaction, understanding and representation of design artefacts have changed. As such strategies entail a large number of possible ...
