Carrying on from the post on Classical Geometries in architecture, this post collects some of the contemporary computational geometries in architecture:

CONTEMPORARY AND PARAMETRIC GEOMETRIES IN ARCHITECTURE

Carrying on from the previous list of historical geometries in architecture, it’s time to look into contemporary geometry typologies.…

In my ongoing attempt to collect some basic data for parametric architects to use, I wrote a short outline of basic geometries.

11 CLASSICAL ARCHITECTURAL GEOMETRIES

The type and use of geometry in architecture is a fundamental element of the variation between styles or language of architecture. The type of geometry is often conflated with meaning. One concept is that architectural style-isms like art swing between periods of “romanticism” and “realism”. With “romantic” being…

Architecture is not a style of particular buildings, nor is it the drawing of building plans; it is a process of problem solving mixed with aesthetics that results in information (drawings) used for construction. For a home or…

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.
