Parametric Geometry

Parametric geometry is a design method in which geometric shapes are defined by variables and rules, rather than manually manipulated. Designers set parameters and rules that govern the formation and relationships of the shapes. By adjusting these parameters, different design variations can be explored quickly without starting from scratch.

This method supports the creation of complex and organic shapes efficiently and is widely used in architecture, industrial design, and engineering. For example, architects can use parametric design to optimize building shapes for energy efficiency or adapt structures to environmental conditions. In industrial design, parametric geometry allows for mass customization by tweaking certain parameters to meet specific user needs.
