"Being inside a parametric system means, being in a system that can be changed at any given moment, it is a flexibility that represents the inspiration to pursue the perfect sensation, order, and logic".  N. Larsen

 

In this upcoming workshop, the participants will develop a small scale Pavilion through the means of generative parametric design methods, while learning various visual coding techniques, useful tools, and practical skill sets. 

​

We'll investigate the design through the subject of "Pattern and DIgital Fields"

-Patterns existed and began to develop from the beginning of time, through tribal rituals, through the Middle Ages, the beginning of Islam, the Renaissance, Asia and the Far East, Art Nevo, Art Deco and the Movement of Decoration. 

 

Patterns are a method of thinking and planning that requires a set of events, or objects that appear in a particular cycle or series. Patterns Create a sequence of events that generate fields and set new times definitions.
