generative & Parametric Guanzhou Opera House Located down stream of Pearl River, the Guangzhou Opera House with it tantalising contours will resonate the high notes of Chinese Opera, in harmony with the tenor of its western brother. It will stand alongside its global family as a testament to state of the art architecture, and as a lasting monument to the New Millennium. Its unique twin boulder design will enhance urban function with open access to the riverside and dock areas and at the same time will create a new dialogue with the emerging new town. It is from here we hope to see the story of the Guangzhou city continue in its evolutionary journey.
Pros & Cons The ability to create a “WOW� project is not hard for parametric design, however, to make the project to satisfy the real life constructionability is difficult. Parametric design extend the possibility of creativity, it generates surprising design that is in free form. The hardest part of any parametric design is fabrication and construction. Any parametric form should be able to be constructed - that is to have a feasible structure and materials that can fabricate the form.
