I.1 Case for Innovation I.1.1 Architecture as a Discourse
UK PAVILION, SHANGHAI 2010
Architects at Heatherwick Studio that are working with parametric applied research team AKT/p.art are aiming to push the envelope with relation to both architecture discourse and contemporary computational design. In this case, architecture ought to be seen as discourse due to it is a field which is better regarded as a practices and debates about the built environment, especially, the Seed Cathedral which are using 60,000 slender transparent acrylic rods with seed inside. Underneath the folded landscape are exhibition spaces showing how cities and nature come together in the UK, thus architecture discourse have been transferred to bring actually European life to Shanghai which also able to bring a sense of sight from UK. Moreover, the seeds from UK are also strong natural elements that reinforcing architectural discourse, which are able to make more interaction and communication between UK and China, people will therefore feeling live more closer to UK. The computational design reinforcing the architectural discourse and the detailed design appears to be a successful process that places as much emphasis on innovative engineering as it does conceptual thinking.
“Develop interactive software applications that help inform structural behaviour in the early parts of the design process.” – Michalatos, Panagiotis, Jul 2011
From the early stages of conceptualisation through to its innovative fabrication of UK Pavilion, the computer programming allows for much more testing of the complex structure due to the 60,000 slender have to “grow up from the simple box”. A strong integration of design with generative programming allows for much more innovative explorations as well as strong integration of design with fabrication.
“Architecture needs to be thought of less as a set of special material products and rather more as range of social and professional practices that sometimes, but by no means
BIG REN - PEOPLE’S BUILDING
From the early stages of conceptualisation through to its innovative fabrication of UK Pavilion, the computer programming allows for much more testing of the complex structure due to the 60,000 slender have to “grow up from the simple box”. A strong integration of design with generative programming allows for much more innovative explorations as well as strong integration of design with fabrication.
The architectural discourse of this building seems to be straight forward for Chinese people due to we learned this Chinese character in primary school. At the most fundamental level People’s Building pushed the basic language of architectural expression.
As I read from the reading, “Architecture needs to be thought of less as a set of special material products and rather more as range of social and professional practices that sometimes, but by no means always, lead to building. “ The social, culture, environment and professional practices are the important impact for the architecture design, and architecture needs to be analysed as discourse.
In this case, the architecture discourses mainly achieved by using transparency material and making more interaction between inside people and outside environments. Architectural discourse also exists within the use of computational tools to translate the data and shape which became the layout of the structure as well as better visual communication.
PERSONAL PROJECT ADS2: THE BOATHOUSE
THE IMPORTANCE OF CONTRIBUTING TO A DISCOURSE WHEN DESIGNING GATEWAY PROJECT
“The discourse around them will become clear, architecture is as much a philosophical, social or professional realm as it is a material one, and it is through the consideration of architecture as discourse that one can engage with it as visual culture.” – Richard Williams
The UK Pavilion as an architectural discourse not only by its visual culture but also by using materials and natural seeds from UK. To “alter an architect’s perception of material and structure”, this is what I have chosen to begin my Expression of Interest proposal. Additionally, my personal design has given another understanding and practicing for EOI which shows the environmental friendly proposal to achieve the architecture discourse between human and nature. This may only be two ideas but it does relate to specific aspects of design that I plan to focus on and incorporate into future EOI. The contemporary computation technologies are really important at this stage, due to it may be impossible to put 60,000 rods in one box without computational testing. I aim to integrate qualities of structural into my EOI through the similar exploration that focuses on layout of the material and how they can achieve by using Rhino and Grasshopper. Furthermore, the surrounding environment acts as an important role for the Gateway design. Therefore, the landscape that UK Pavilion sit could also influence the way of designing. The UK Pavilion has creating a visual centre piece that invites attention and interaction. This is also what the Wyndham City Project seeking.
“Seeking an exciting, eye catching installation” – The Wyndham City Project
“For the first time perhaps, architectural design might be aligned with neither formalism nor rationalism but with intelligent form and traceable creativity”. Terzidis, Kostas (2006).
448 CORIAN LOUNGE, LONDON I.1 Case for Innovation I.1.2 COMPUTING IN ARCHITECTURE
The Lounge is a loosely defined architectural concept about a space that is animated by the movement of people in transit. This project was inspired by the dynamics and ephemeral materiality of the ripples which emerge from a single drop of water. They materialize the transformation with a series of flat Corian sheets that have been activated by virtual movements and forces.
The process of designing digitally was also applied physically as we developed an intense dialogue with their fabricators through the exchange of 3D files and CNC information allowing them to conduct serial tests of the material performance of Corian. The tests will therefore reinforce for the constraining certain geometric variables within the parametric models.
In this case it shows the movement of people in transit through parametric design, which also reinforce for the Gateway Project Brief due to “motion” is now the mainly concept for our group. The Wyndham City Project was seeking the design is able to be viewed by motorists travelling at high speed. Using parametric design techniques will achieve what they are seeking as well as the design concept of our group, “motion”.
As the reading “Architecture’s New Media” said, the architectural design is an activity that deals, in equal measures, with externally imposed constraints such as site conditions, climate, function, cost, building codes and so forth. The computers are superb analytical engines and they can follow a line of reasoning to its logical conclusion. Sometimes people’s idea is not going to work out through the computational design techniques, especially for the construction features. The computational design techniques will help us to make the building more and more logically. Such as the Grasshopper which may transfer the statistics into the diagrams.
The investigations into digital technique over the last two decades have provided architects and designers with incredibly productive tools – but little basis in how and when to use them. If design computation strategies are to be used to produce pefor formative form, then we have to consider that how form effects performance needs to be interrogated more seriously.
While flashback to the concept of computational design, what is computational design and why will I use it? I asked myself whether I understand or not. In my opinion, I think the computational design harnesses the processing power of computers to perform millions of mathematic computations to create multiple outcomes and these computations can be anything: form generation, manipulation, or reduction.
ADAPTIVE RESPIRATION PASSIVE FLOWER & SHARK SKIN SMART SKIN THE PARAMETRIC DESIGN WORKSHOP
The parametric design workshop engages the problems raised by our rapid pace of urbanization and the ecological impact of our built environment, using two main drivers: the evolving of digital technologies, and the growing of ecological awareness.
For these projects, Workshop will lead a dynamic team that brings together a wealth of practical and researchbased architectural and computational parametric design. Extensive parametric and analysis tools are used for the design of these projects, such as Grasshopper and Rhinoscript.
As digital technology plays a critical role in acknowledging change and difference in the way of the design, build and live architecture. The use of parametric design software in this context will enable designers to use design not only as an architecture discourse that reflecting architecture’s aesthetic values but also as a regulator of the internal and external environments, managing bioclimatic flows to maintain homeostasis through intelligent morphologies.
ANALYSIS THE PARAMETRIC DESIGN BASED ON THE PROJECTS
brief argument: similarly innovative approach to the Gateway Project
The parametric design has been used in this example due to it is good to represent a complex shape and making more intersections for the interior and exterior environment, therefore, achieving architectural discourse between exterior vegetation and interior people which also a part of the Gate Way design concept.
Also, using parametric design can easily attract people due to it always looks complex and cool. To make the design conspicuous by adding the vegetation which just growing from the gap as the Adaptive Respiration design shows in the top of the building. In this case, the use of vegetation works together with the parametric design functioned as ornamentation to the building. Parametric design here creates a dynamic surface instead of a flat façade.
The concept of the environmental friendly acts as the architecture discourse for the design and it can be learned for designing the Gateway due to the particular site has less vegetation and green spaces. People who spent lots of time driven on the highway do need some elements that are able to change their visual sensation and experience. Melbourne as a ‘Garden City’ has 40% of vegetation covery, meanwhile freeway leads the way into a city, Gateway design as a signage of a city could provide the significant urban image of the city. Respond to the image of ‘Garden City’, (documentation of Melbourne 2013) vegetation acts as a core element of design approach.
I.1 Case for Innovation I.1.3 PARAMETRIC MODELLING
“Scripting, enables computer programming to be an integral part of the design process, it opens up a world of opportunities for innovation, allowing the designer to customize the software around their own approach. Scripting liberates designing by automating many routine aspects and repetitive activities of the design process. It has many beneficial attributes to this approach to digital computation. It is being explored collaboratively with emerging digital fabrication technologies. However, many designers are hesitant to use and engage in this type of computational design.�
contemporary scripting project & design philosophy
Seroussi pavilion was “grown” out of self-modifying patterns of vectors based on electro-magnetic fields (EMF). Through logics of attraction/repulsion trajectories were computed in plan and then lifted via series of structural microarching sections through different frequencies of sine function. It is a project that embodies overlapping employment of a number of scripting cultures and design philosophies. The design intent was to investigate and experiment ways of scripting toward a solution. However, it seems that the algorithmic logic in the scripting has leaded to discovery of new emergent patterns within generative systems. Floor’s micro-dunning is developed through a complex attractor script operating between 2 sets of geometries. Within this scripting culture, designers are dependent on an optimistic outlook on scripting as a new tool which potentials and possibilities are still being investigated and discovered.
Reflected back to the layout and the mathmatical patterns, as seen in Seroussi Pavillion project which not only explores structural tragectories for interiornal design but also enables more possibilities in design beyond the imagination. By establishing means in digital computation and embracing scripting cultures, the Gateway for Wyndham City can be explored in a manner that will create more innovative design outcomes relay on the requirements of the Wyndham city council. The employment of generative systems in the Gateway Project can be explored formed on nature elements, magnetic fields in Seroussi Pavillion. Morever, nature occurrences reminds our group of vegetation “waving” the wind.

part 2: how does the scripting influence the Gateway project
IN 2010, THE INSTITUTE FOR COMPUTATIONAL DESIGN (ICD) AND THE INSTITUTE OF BUILDING STRUCTURES AND STRUCTURAL DESIGN (ITKE) DESIGNED AND CONSTRUCTED A TEMPORARY RESEARCH PAVILION. THE INNOVATIVE STRUCTURE DEMONSTRATES THE LATEST DEVELOPMENT IN MATERIALORIENTED COMPUTATIONAL DESIGN, SIMULATION, AND PRODUCTION PROCESSES IN ARCHITECTURE. THE RESULT IS A BENDING-ACTIVE STRUCTURE MADE ENTIRELY OF EXTEREMELY THIN, ELASTICALLY -BENT PLYWOOD STRIPS.
The material (plywood) has been used for the computational test. By using computers, the bending test of timber becomes possible. The computational design model is based on embedding the relevant material behavioural features in parametric principles and of course to define a large number of physical experiments focusing on the measurement of deflections of elastically bent thin plywood strips are impossible without computer. This design will reinforce for creating more innovation design outcomes rely on the requirements of Wyndham city council due to the different choosing of materials. The employment of generative systems in the Gateway Project can be again explored formed on nature elements, in this case, the plywood
I.1 Case for Innovation I.1.4 CASE FOR INNOVATION CONCLUTION
“The dominant mode of utilizing computers in architecture today is that of computerization; entities or processes that are already conceptualized in the designer’s mind are entered, manipulated, or stored on a computer system. In contrast, computation or computing, as a computerbased design tool, is generally limited.”
A range of possibilities between geometry, audio and digital behaviours have been presented by interactive media system. Some of these elements are appropriate for my Expression of Interest proposal and I can learn from them. According to the criteria of the Wyndham City Project there is specific focus on motion, vegetation and material. To see how existing and iconic architecture transformed within a computational design. Contemporary reinterpretations such as these can bring architecture to the present and provoke new interpretations of pre-existing ideas. For our further design of Gateway Project, these cases will therefore have a strong influence.
CASE FOR INNOVATION CONCLUTION
I.2 RESEARCH PROJECT
I.2.1.1 INPUT/ASSOCIATION/ OUTPUT MATRIX
The examples of design project, drawing on installation and urban intervention precedents, especially those commissioned as public art in the proximity of motorways. During the lecture, I was very impressive about the ‘Big W’ project, especially for the shadows. Relating on the computer process, it is useful to show the design outcomes and their relationship with the railways and the surrounding nature.
According to Kalay’s reading that mentioned the important is to be able to predict how and where computers can be useful in design. These in turns show that using computer design (Rhino, Grasshopper, etc) which may be the best way to achieve the complex geometry and forms, thus, parametric design.
“Seeking an exciting, eye catching installation” – The Wyndham City Project
Arbitrary Points - Curve Attractor – Data Driven Extrusion At this stage, I find that however computers are superb analytical engines as Kalay said in the reading, but the problem is that to transfer our idea to computer is more difficult than transferring computer data to our mind. If correctly programmed, computers can follow a line of reasoning to its logical conclusion and never be tired, never make silly arithmetical mistakes and will gladly search through and correlate facts buried in the endless heaps of information that they can store.
Boolean Patterning – Maths Functions –Rotation Operation Everybody studied the maths in the high school and we learned how the function looks like. However, we never learned that to repeat them several times and they may create an architectural parametric design by using the computer program. I think it is a communication between high school student and the university students. As Kalay said in the reading that drawings and scale models allowed architects not only to communicate with the builders and their clients, but also to experiment with alternative design solutions and test them on paper for form and function before they were committed to stone. They allowed more people to become involved in the design process, and allowed the architects to develop more intricate design.
As Kalay mentioned in the reading, framing tasks is important for every computer design. As for the Grasshopper, the “Input”, “Association” and the “Output” act as the frames of the design processes and therefore understanding each of the steps seems more necessary for achieving the design outcomes. These “cut definitions” can be used in combination with different components for inputs, an associative technique and output geometry.
The above variational exploration is an example of a search process known as a depth first method which is relative to the exploration of a candidate solution to its logical conclusion. Our groups design intent is focused on natural occurrences at this stage and we are interested in emergent forms and generative systems. Hence, in regards to the EOI, it is important to understand that the search process for the Gateway Project for Wyndham city can produce more optimal outcomes and design solutions. Depending on the search method as specified by Kalay’s reading it is apparent that computational design has much more innovative and possible candidate solutions for consideration.
I.2 RESEARCH PROJECT I.2.1.2 REVERSE - ENGINEERED CASE-STUDY
The concept of performance-driven architectural design including existing approaches and the potentials for the future has been discussed during the lecture. To regard “air� as a foundation to these, more advanced, techniques has been discussed of how the base principles of parametric modelling can be extend into simulation environments with generative and evaluative capabilities able to stage many types of performances.

The museum’s unique copper façade is perforated to simulated dappled light filtering through a canopy of trees, creating an abstract pattern that complements the de Young’s parkland setting. To create the perforation design for the façade, architects Herzog & de Meuron superimposed abstracted digitized photographs of tree canopies onto each elevation of the de Young and its four-sided tower.
The sculptural form is achieved by using a system of aluminium. Due to this project is aiming more nature light accessing in the narrow street, the metallic silver finish used here is a high performance durable paint which typically used on the super yahts. These remind me that the material should be carefully considered due to the reflecting of light will make the driver vertiginous.
Creating exterior building skin by a layer of dense vegetation, the design invents an architectural system that performs with similar attributes to the demolished green strip and creates a new atmospheric space of protection.
This is another case that getting idea from landscape, especially, the vegetation. Adopting the imagery of Sendai’s characteristic landscape, the steel panels are perforated with a hole-pattern based on a photograph of a Zelkova tree canopy.
The frames showed to be really dense, however it is still visible throughout the interior.

To that end, they developed a striated woodslatted system that conceals the view of the mechanical, plumbing, and lighting systems on the longitudinal axis, which offering a virtual canopy under which to dine. Another important part of the design is the structure and how its geometry conforms to the equipment above. Learning from this case, we start to concern the structure and how to construct out design for the Gateway Project due to the parametric design seems like only used for the designing of the façade for buildings.

The parametric techniques that I have learnt are multiplex, however after researching and testing several combination of “input” “association” and “output”, I seems could understand the logical way of thinking of Grasshopper. For the future work, the more logical way of thinking will be provide by using the parametric techniques that I have learned, also it will enables a family of related design options (or versions) to be explored and evaluated.

The results of the evaluation are communicated back to the previous steps for improvement or adjustment of the solution, or for changing the requirements. It is possible that a deficiency detected by the evaluation process can be fixed by changing the solution. Or, if the deficiency is not due to a shortcoming of the solution, but rather to incompatible goals or overly restrictive constraints, the goals and the constraints must be adjusted if a satisfactory solution is to be achieved.
The design equivalent is the “satisficing� solution, which is often somewhat different from the original solution and meets goals that are somewhat different from the ones that were determined at the outset of the process.
As in the Wyndham City’s design brief, they mentioned that they want the Gateway design to be exciting, eye catching installation. We did the research for the parametric design and we found that the parametric design can act as the innovation architecture in this century and they are always looks cool and complex. After the researching, we learnt that lots of parametric designs are good for acting the motion, the 2D to 3D images, etc. After we did several “matrix”, we find out that it is important to ‘framing the task’ as Kalay mentioned in the reading. Moreover, the concept of “motion (dynamic views)” has been chosen for our further develop of the Gateway project due to the ‘matrix’ gave us a background technology of showing the motion in Grasshopper. The case study of BANQ reinforce for the proposal design due to the idea of overlapping as well as the idea of gradually changing the views reminds us for the further design. At this stage, we are aiming that to use several layers to create dynamic feeling, especially when they drive in a high speed.
As in the Wyndham City’s brief mentioned ‘the installation will enhance the physical environments through the introduction of a visual arts component’, our group decided to add the vegetation in the design due to in the particular site, there are less vegetation. Moreover, there is a good example that using vegetation to make the parametric design more active and it will therefore make good ventilation for the inside people and outside environment.
We learnt from the examples under section “Innovation of Architecture”. The use of parametric design software will enable designers to use design not only as an architecture discourse that reflecting architecture’s aesthetic values but also as a regulator of the internal and external environments, managing bioclimatic flows to maintain homeostasis through intelligent morphologies.
‘The concept of the environmental friendly acts as the architecture discourse for the design’ and it can be learned for designing the Gateway due to the particular site has less vegetation and green spaces. People who spent lots of time driven on the highway do need some elements that are able to change their visual sensation and experience. Melbourne as a ‘Garden City’ has 40% of vegetation covery, meanwhile freeway leads the way into a city, Gateway design as a signage of a city could provide the significant urban image of the city. Respond to the image of ‘Garden City’, vegetation acts as a core element of design approach.

Instead of searching the solution space for the solution to a problem, we look for a solution to the problem. This can be accomplished by reducing the size of the solution space by adding constraints until all but a few or perhaps only one solution remains, making the selection of the satisfactory solution trivial.

SKETCH MODEL ii ‘shadow’ LIGHT, SHADOW, DYNAMIC
Drawings and scale models allowed architects not only to communicate with the builders and their clients, but also to experiment with alternative design solutions and test them on paper for form and function before they were committed to stone. They allowed more people to become involved in the design process, and allowed the architects to develop more intricate designs. Our group made two sketch models for testing and experiencing the idea based on our design concept at this stage. The ‘Vortex –penetration’ model is more concentrate on experiencing the methods that we learned through the cases of innovation and the CUT case study projects. However, the second model is more concentrate the shadow effect of the design which will create a dynamic view for the drivers.
The presentation has been held on 27 April, 2012. FEEDBACK ANND FURTHER DEVELOPMENT:
• The use of vegetation has been argued between tutors due to the vegetation types are hard to find and the “vegetation video’ that we showed seems like useless. However, Chris thought that vegetation is a good option for the design. The use of vegetation may be delete, due to vegetation seems like uncontrollable. • The ideas from two sketch model have to be combined for the further development. Thus, represent “motion” by changing the different shapes of layers. • At the structural point of view, the second “tunnel like” structure is not stable. The construction for the Gateway design still has to be careful analysed. • Overlapping seems like a good start point for the further development. The “honey cone” sketch model has been showed the idea of “rolling in the deep” successfully. • We concentrate the structure of the BANQ case study before, however, it seems like that we will move the focusing on the change of layers, different materials as well as different texture will all create better experience.
