think parametric What impact could a parametric process have on the way designing architects think? In this seminar we will investigate this question by taking the parametric approach out of the box it has been originally conceived for. We will use software that is not exclusively streamlined to solving a predefined set of problems as found in building construction but that is equipped to process a much wider scope of input data. The student will have a chance to research how parametric concepts can be applied to the architectural design-process. Such research will also extend the boundaries of our intellectual approach, of our way we think. Parametric modelling means to “think parametric”. Eventually the parametric concept provides us with a new mindset, that has the potential to remove certain barriers from our thought processes. It can empower us to tackle problem definitions that previously seemed to be inconceivable.
