The introductory phase of the diploma conduced to an intensive research on parametric design tools and geometry scripting logics.
Through a series of experiments in 'Generative Components', an extensive repertoire of various routines, patterns and geometries was developed.
The main aim was to explore their design potential for specific architectural scales.
We focused on the development of surface modulation tools and
the investigation of various scripted patterns to demonstrate the potential of articulating a surface geometry.
In the context of an urban scale site in NY, a surface script was applied.
It respects the existent city grid and combines differentiated densities, directionalities and zoning logics to define an independent coherency for the whole site as one new district.
The final articulation of the surface visualizes local program and geometry characteristics.
Visual complexity was achieved through superimposition of input data combining different aspects of the design process.
