Sharing Experiences between the Academy and Architecture Offices in Parametric Modeling and Digital Manufacturing

Abstract

This paper presents the results of actions aimed at sharing experiences of recognition and appropriation of techniques of parametric design and digital fabrication with architectural offices, developed within the scope of an extension project. Such actions have invested in spreading a culture of using such techniques so that architecture professionals can help to envision applications together with the resolution of design problems in specific and local contexts. As a result, in addition to the students' own training in the subject in question, the participants in the actions were given an opportunity to reflect on the knowledge shared between academia and architecture professionals.
