“…This process can be implemented through visual programming environment for parametric design built upon CAD software. The main advantage of visual programming for parametric design lie in its accessibility, modularity and visual representation [6], specifically for users without a technical background. Rather than typing code, the user simply picks components from a large library that comes with the software and immediately gets a feedback in the form of a 3D representation.…”

-The current construction industry slowly adapts towards the new possibilities created through digitalization. However there still a major gap in the information flow between planning phases and the start of construction. With modern robotics we see a chance to mediate this gap. By using cloud accessible CAD software and linking it directly with a web interface, new means of cloud informed fabrication become possible. Designers can easily obtain feedback regarding recurring issues or design demands. We want to enable users to create their own design based on rules and parameters preselected by the designer. Therefore processes for individual parts require an integrated design. Considering changing user demands and the resulting usage requirements the optimization in the phase of conversion from the user´s perspective can help the design process. A number of fabrication technology services exist, which allow for mass customized product creation. The required web interfaces used for these kind of services however are created on a case by case basis. Additionally the required production parameters have to be transferred to the production process. An easy flow from parametric design model towards a web interface for user feedback and fabrication as a service was developed and is presented within this paper.

“…A parametric schema is a collection of structured relationships between functions, parameters, and a geometric model while the form itself is modeled by the structured parameters (Oxman and Oxman 2014;Davis et al 2011). The legibility of the parametric representation and its capability of eventually becoming an accepted shared representation are central factors in determining how effectively the potential crowd can interact with the parametric schema.…”

In this paper we propose and introduce parametric design as a potential methodological basis for a shared computational representation schema that can support crowdsourcing design in a 'social motive' model of design. A 'social motive' model of design is multi-phase (Pre-design, Design, and Post-design) model of design that offers a new perception for obtaining and exploiting experiential feedback of society. We first introduce the theory and concepts of Crowdsourcing. In the following sections we propose a theoretical schema that demonstrates how information flow is shared in a holistic and compound model in various phases of design. Our digital design model and the conceptual structure represents computational design processes of informed design model; informing design about per-formative and physical environmental conditions as well as the experience and wisdom of the crowd which can be easily mapped to the pre-design; conceptual design; and post-design. Finally we illustrate, demonstrate and discuss how by exploiting the concept of the parametric schema as a common representational formalism, the wisdom of the crowd can potentially be integrated to inform processes of digital design generation, adaptation and change in the various phases of design in order to improve design.
