What is Parametric Design in Architecture

I wrote a short post on my thoughts on what Parametric Design is within Architecture. With so many designers calling their blob or crumbled form "parametric" with no use of parametric methods, I argue that Parametric Design is not a style, it is a process. At least for now.

It employs mathematical algorithms and computer programming to generate intricate and adaptable structures, enhancing both aesthetic appeal and functionality. The flexibility inherent in parametric design enables architects to create structures that respond to various environmental factors, such as climate and light. This adaptability, akin to changing sticker business cards to suit different occasions, allows for designs that evolve with the needs of the occupants and the environment. It's an innovative approach that is reshaping the architectural landscape and providing new possibilities for sustainable and visually striking structures.
