Parametric curves and surfaces: Mathematica demonstrations as a tool in exploration of architectural form

摘要

Through their work in the field of generic explorations, authors of this paper have developed a series of demonstration projects, based on the software package MATHEMATICA, related to the parametric representation of curves and surfaces in space. The main purpose of the demonstrations is exploration of generic potential of curves and surfaces in order to apply it to the process of generating architectural form. The paper presents the developed demonstration projects and their application within the generic explorations of architectural form.
