Sabbagh Associate Professor, Department of Fashion Design, College of Arts & Design, Umm Al-Qura University, Mecca, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia [email protected] Paper History: Paper received 20th February 2021, Accepted 7th May 2021, Published 1st of July 2021 Abstract: BACKGROUND: Architecture is a form of self-expression and one of the most influential arts, as it expresses the human interaction with society and the surrounding environment. The development in architecture since the beginning of the twentieth century appeared in both form and content, which made it the subject of interest of a number of fashion designers, as it is possible to take advantage of technical progress in architecture to design clothes that achieve aesthetic aspects through the use of continuous, curved and intersecting lines (Muhammad et al., 2017) . RESEARCH PROBLEM: The problem of this research can be formulated through some questions: What is the concept of parametric design? What is the possibility of the effect of parametric design on fashion design? How can the parametric manipulation affect level of design creativity? OBJECTIVES: The research aims to: Identify the importance, features, and applications of parametric design and creating fashion designs for women that reflect the lines and shapes of parametric design. RESULTS & DISCUSSION: The correlation relationship between the variables under study was a very strong and significant, which means that the axes of the questionnaire under study are in harmony with each other in achieving the possibility of the possibility of increasing the level of creativity and innovation fluency in the field of contemporary women's fashion design by using parametric manipulations. Regression model: It is a significant model. Results explain the effect of the four independent variables on the dependent variable. Therefore, it can be predicted through these independent variables by interpreting 99% of the variance in the use of parametric design as a rich input for innovation and creativity in fashion design. Through the graphic representation, it was also possible to arrange the designs in terms of the overall evaluation of the five axes of the questionnaire. Design No. 6 received the highest rating of approval and evaluation from the judges (96.35%), while Design No. 7 scored the lowest rating among the ten designs (82.25%). It also swallowed the success rate of the five axes combined in achieving the idea of research by (89.22%). References: 1. Hassan, B. (2018).

  • Parametric CAD Modeling: an Analysis of Strategies for Design Reusability
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Repositori Institucional de la Universitat Jaume I Parametric CAD Modeling: An Analysis of Strategies for Design Reusability Jorge D. Cambaa, Manuel Conterob, Pedro Companyc aUniversity of Houston. Houston, TX. [email protected] bUniversitat Politècnica de València. Valencia, Spain. [email protected] cUniversitat Jaume I, Castellón, Spain. [email protected] Abstract CAD model quality in parametric design scenarios largely determines the level of flexibility and adaptability of a 3D model (how easy it is to alter the geometry) as well as its reusability (the ability to use existing geometry in other contexts and applications). In the context of mechanical CAD systems, the nature of the feature-based parametric modeling paradigm, which is based on parent-child interdependencies between features, allows a wide selection of approaches for creating a specific model. Despite the virtually unlimited range of possible strategies for modeling a part, only a small number of them can guarantee an appropriate internal structure which results in a truly reusable CAD model. In this paper, we present an analysis of formal CAD modeling strategies and best practices for history-based parametric design: Delphi’s horizontal modeling, explicit reference modeling, and resilient modeling. Aspects considered in our study include the rationale to avoid the creation of unnecessary feature interdependencies, the sequence and selection criteria for those features, and the effects of parent/child relations on model alteration. We provide a comparative evaluation of these strategies in the form of a series of experiments using three industrial CAD models with different levels of complexity.

  • Parametric Design Thinking About Digital and Material Surface Patterns
    INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ENGINEERING AND PRODUCT DESIGN EDUCATION 6 & 7 SEPTEMBER 2018, DYSON SCHOOL OF DESIGN ENGINEERING, IMPERIAL COLLEGE, LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM PARAMETRIC DESIGN THINKING ABOUT DIGITAL AND MATERIAL SURFACE PATTERNS Wenche LYCHE, Arild BERG and Kristin ANDREASSEN OsloMet – Oslo Metropolitan University ABSTRACT There is a growing need in contemporary society to understand new and emerging relationships between technology and creativity. In practice-oriented areas of education such as design, many instructors have come to understand the importance of different learning styles and how students benefit when presentation of new material is varied to reach all students. The concept of parametric design thinking enabled by advanced computational processes has recently been identified as a relevant approach to design education. The present research further explores parametric design thinking through two case studies of design workshops in an educational context and how this approach can promote diversity. The first case (Robotised Clay Workshop) documents material exploration and creative and aesthetic possibilities in digitalised clay processes. The second case (Surface Patterns in Textiles: From Tradition to Digitalisation and Back) explores digitalised processes in hybrid textile design. The two case studies contribute to the exploration of parametric design thinking as an educational approach and discuss digitalisation and the relations of body, hand and mind in terms of the Vygotskyan ‘zone of proximal development’. This content was synthesised for a workshop on surface patterns for third-year bachelor design students. The paper identifies some potentials and pitfalls of this pedagogical approach and concludes that students’ awareness of conformity and diversity in the design process can be used as a starting point to explore digital surface patterns, offering students a new way of learning about function, aesthetics and product semantics through parametric design thinking.

  • Design of Parametric Software Tools: Optimizing Future Health Care Performance by Integrating Evidence-Based Knowledge in Architectural Design and Building Processes
    Lighting in Engineering, Architecture and the Environment 37 Design of parametric software tools: optimizing future health care performance by integrating evidence-based knowledge in architectural design and building processes J. B. Sabra & M. Mullins Department of Architecture, Design and Media Technology, Aalborg University, Denmark Abstract The studies investigate the field of evidence-based design used in architectural design practice and propose a method using 2D/3D CAD applications to: 1) enhance integration of evidence-based design knowledge in architectural design phases with a focus on lighting and interior design and 2) assess fulfilment of evidence-based design criterion regarding light distribution and location in relation to patient safety in architectural health care design proposals. The study uses 2D/3D CAD modelling software Rhinoceros 3D with plug-in Grasshopper to create parametric tool prototypes to exemplify the operations and functions of the design method. To evaluate the prototype potentials, surveys with architectural and healthcare design companies are conducted. Evaluation is done by the administration of questionnaires being part of the development of the tools. The results show that architects, designers and healthcare design advisors recon the tool prototypes as a meaningful and valuable approach for 1) integrating and using evidence-based information; and 2) optimizing design processes and health care facility performances. Further study focuses on parametric information relations in Building Information

  • GUI-Based Chinese Font Editing System Using Font Parameterization Technique
    Typography and Diversity http://www.typoday.in GUI-based Chinese Font Editing System Using Font Parameterization Technique Minju Son, School of Computer Science and Engineering, Soongsil University, [email protected] Gyeongjae Gwon, School of Computer Science and Engineering, Soongsil University, [email protected] Jaeyeong Choi, School of Computer Science and Engineering, Soongsil University, [email protected] Geunho Jeong, Gensol Soft, Seoul, Korea, [email protected] Abstract: When creating Roman fonts, about 256 characters should be designed. Whereas creating Chinese fonts, around 8,000 widely used characters should be designed from the total 80,000 to 100,000 characters. In order to solve these problems, many studies on programmable fonts have been performed since 1980s. METAFONT is a font designing system for improving the quality of TeX typesetting in TeX document, and it represents programmable fonts. However, as METAFONT is a programming language, it is very difficult for general font designers to design fonts directly by using it. In order to solve this problem, we propose a GUI-based Chinese font editing system by font parameterization technique, which can easily edit fonts in web browser. Key words: Font Editor, Programmable Font, Font Parameterization, METAFONT. 1. Introduction Recently, the development of portable devices has increased the number of places where fonts are essential, such as e-books, websites, mobile games, books, newspapers, etc. When creating Roman fonts, about 256 characters should be designed. Whereas creating Chinese fonts, around 8,000 widely used characters should be designed from the total 80,000 to 100,000 characters. When generating fonts, characters are generally described as ‘outline’.

Communication and Participation in Virtual Environments Towards a parametric participatory urban design decision-making platform Shuva Chowdhury Victoria University of Wellington, Wellington, New Zealand [email protected] Marc Aurel Schnabel Victoria University of Wellington, Wellington, New Zealand [email protected] Abstract: We seek a framework for engaging people in urban design decision-making process by employing virtual tools. We adopt our previously developed parametric tools for design communication as a bridging method between conventional and participatory urban design approaches. We hypothesise that a virtual participatory urban design platform can provide more design associated information for laypeople to participate in design decision-making. The conventional urban design approaches investigate urban form as purely through the lens of urban professionals. In participatory urban design approaches the design decisions remain as general assumptions because of lack of enough associated information. Therefore, we have developed a methodology to produce urban forms by taking advantages of computational tools to engage stakeholders in complex urban design decision-making processes. This paper focuses on designing the charrette tools. We propose a mixed method of virtual and actual to orient people in the design discussion. We investigate our tools for Karori, a neighbourhood in New Zealand. We critically conclude the paper with an overview of our virtual design communication tools which is destined to engage people in a later stage.

  • The Use of Metaphors As a Parametric Design Teaching Model: a Case Study
    The Use of Metaphors as a Parametric Design Teaching Model: A Case Study Asli Agirbas, Fatih Sultan Mehmet Vakif University, Istanbul, Turkey Abstract Teaching methodologies for parametric design are being researched all over the world, since there is a growing demand for computer programming logic and its fabrication process in architectural education. The computer programming courses in architectural education are usually done in a very short period of time, and so students have no chance to create their own designs. This paper describes a course in which metaphors are used as a teaching methodology in parametric design, in order to let students create their own designs and learn the basic elements of parametric programming language in a short period of time with deductive reasoning. In this course, it was intended to teach visual programming language to undergraduates. Advancing under the metaphor theoretical framework, the students obtained experience in achieving form-finding process for their projects in accord with the certain constraints. Using this methodology, the students, who experienced all design stages from 3D modeling to the digital fabrication, additionally were able to develop their ability for versatile thinking and the use of more than one tool in combination, in the early years of their architectural education. Key words metaphors; Parametric Design; Form-finding; Teaching Model; Architectural Education. Introduction When parametric design is referred to, two perspectives come to mind in architecture, as was noted by Stavric and Marina (2011). One of these is the architectural constructive parametric design, and the other is the architectural conceptual parametric design. In architectural constructive parametric design, focus is made upon the forms, which are easier to produce in real life, and the work is carried out using pre-drawn 3D objects: BIM programs (such as Revit and ArchiCAD) are used for this purpose.

  • Structure, Architecture, and Computation: Past and Future
    Structure, Architecture, and Computation: Past and Future [One must not] fear that the adoption of forms and volumes closely following natural laws must lead to a monotonous and unsupportable uniformity of products. —Pier Luigi Nervi RENAUD DANHAIVE INTRODUCTION Massachusetts Institute of Technology In architectural design, the past decades have been marked by the evolution of the computer from a drawing instrument to a design tool. It is clear that computation has had, and will CAITLIN MUELLER continue to have, a significant impact on the design process. Bill Addis (2007) identifies the Massachusetts Institute of Technology post-1960’s period as the Computer Age in structural design, and this classification is, if not absolute, relevant for architecture as well. Computers have not only enabled the construc- tion of some of the world’s most daring structures, but also have also given birth to new styles and visions. Styles were constructed based on the new modeling possibilities offered by software and the computer played a crucial role in the development of new architectural visions in the second part of the twentieth century (Picon, 2010). However, computation and, specifically, the development of numerical solvers for structural analysis, did not mean that engineers designed more efficient structures. On te contrary, the rise of finite element analysis enabled a ‘make-it-work’ approach, exemplified first by the Sydney Opera House of the Utzon-Arup duo and many projects after. In terms of design thinking, this represented a huge shift compared to the philosophy of engineers and architects of the 1950’s, or even of the Architectural Engineering Age in general as described by Addis (2007).
