Description

Parametric architecture uses the latest technologies, algorithms and mathematics. As a basis, it uses the idea of parameterization, i.e. creating projects related with requirements in the model, where changing one value causes recalculation of the entire project. Its form amazes and sometimes shocks. The book deals with parametricism, a style which considers itself the successor of the Avant-garde and derives from parametric design. Parametricism as a style in architecture was named by Patrik Schumacher, associate of Zaha Hadid. Whether this is a true parametric architecture is argued by many architects. It arouses emotions and admiration. Continuity of lines, visual nature, inspiration by the shapes of nature, and the choice of technology make them one of the most spectacular buildings in the history of architecture.
