BIM 기반 디자인 프로세스에서의 파라메트릭 디자인 툴 활용에 관한 연구

The theoretical framework of this study focuses on design aspects of BIM as a parametric design tool to study and generate complex geometric forms based on series of parameters and pre-programmed rules, and to test a variety of simulated design alternatives responding to dynamic variety of geometrical, functional and environmental constraints in the process of design. BIM is one of the most prominent themes in today’s architectural industry, and has many benefits that can be directly applied to design studies during the early design phase. However in Korea, BIM is still limitedly recognized as a documentation tool to produce design deliverables or only as an integrated platform to closely collaborate with other engineering and construction disciplines. Therefore, this study explores theoretical basis of parametric design related to BIM, and also intends to analyze how parametric thinking and methodologies can be applied to design process in architectural practice through international case studies and how they are evolving into the next phase.
