Unlocking Architectural Creativity: First-Year Students Master Parametric Modelling for Innovative Designs
Parametric modelling is a useful skill in architecture that helps designers create many design options quickly. A study in Indonesia showed that first-year architecture students can learn and benefit from parametric modelling to boost their creativity and design skills. The study found that practicing parametric modelling can improve students' design intuition and help them develop their design skills. The key lessons for effective parametric design learning include using metaphorical thinking, communicating actively with teachers, and focusing on inspirational tools.
