Description
Parametric Design for Architecture by Wassim Jabi provides a practical guide to generating geometric and topological solutions using parametric design software. This clear and accessible book explains various techniques, including parametric, generative, and algorithmic methods, through detailed tutorials and step-by-step instructions. The book illustrates its concepts using scripting languages such as Autodesk 3ds Max MAXScript, Processing, and a new language specifically tailored for parametric and generative design (Autodesk DesignScript). This makes it easy for students to experiment with parametric techniques despite lacking the necessary skills and knowledge. Wassim Jabi's comprehensive guide is accompanied by a foreword and an afterword, adding value to this useful resource. Suitable for those looking to explore parametric design software, this book offers a wide appeal to architecture students and professionals alike.
