Parametric design for landscape architects : computational techniques and workflows / Andrew Madl.
Material type: TextPublisher: London : Routledge, 2021Description: xi, 206 pages : illustrations (black and white, and colour) ; 28 cmContent type: text | still image Media type: unmediated Carrier type: volumeISBN: 9780367195304; 0367195305Subject(s): Landscape design -- Data processing | Landscape architecture -- Computer programsAdditional physical formats: ebook version :: No titleDDC classification: 712.0285 Summary: Parametric Design for Landscape Architects provides a sequence of tutorial-based workflows for the creation and utilization of algorithmic tools calibrated toward the field of landscape architecture. Contemporary practice and projective theory in landscape architecture require the processing and design of data associated with complex systems to adequately represent composite, emergent scenarios. Aligning to both traditional and nascent processes of analysis and digital modeling, this book unpacks and decodes the characterization of algorithmic-based automation, leveraging software that is widely accessible in both academia and professional practice. Curated throughout are workflows that apply to a multiplex of computation programs that widely support the design, analysis, and production of landscapes, primarily concentrated on digital modeling tools Grasshopper and Rhinoceros. It is a much-needed, visually accessible resource to aid in more efficient understanding and creation of tools that automate and re-examine traditional calculations, analyses, drawing standards, form-finding strategies, fabrication preparations, and speculative assessments/simulation. This primer provides professionals and students with multifaceted skill-sets that, when applied in practice, expand and expedite conventional and speculative design workflows applicable to spatial design, and more specifically landscape architecture. The book includes over 200 full-colour drawings, images, and tables to illustrate and support examples throughout.Item type | Current library | Home library | Shelving location | Class number | Status | Date due | Barcode | Item reservations | |
