Abstract:

Contemporary architecture has undergone a major transformation thanks to the integration of digital technologies, advanced software, and mathematical algorithms into design. Mathematics is now a generative tool, enabling the creation of dynamic and complex architectural forms through parametric design. Parametric design uses mathematical equations and rules to connect architectural elements, allowing for innovative and responsive models that meet functional and environmental needs. Programs such as Rhinoceros and Grasshopper are pivotal in this process, redefining architects as programmers and designers and improving building sustainability through enhanced performance metrics. The study aims to clarify the concept and function of mathematical algorithms in generating parametric forms, analyze their interaction with architectural and environmental aspects, and examine their real-world applications. It also evaluates the contribution of algorithms to sustainability, creativity, and efficiency, along with the challenges faced by architects. The research employed a descriptive-analytical methodology and included theoretical analysis, a literature review, a comparative study of models and case studies, and data extraction from academic publications and dissertations. Analytical techniques included descriptive, comparative, and inferential approaches, focusing on contemporary global projects from the early 21st century onward. Key findings indicate that mathematical algorithms are fundamental to parametric design, facilitating logical connections between components and enabling adaptability. Parametric designs demonstrate superior innovation, efficiency, and sustainability compared to traditional methods. The research concludes that the synergy between mathematics and architecture revolutionizes design processes and promotes a new cognitive framework for digital architecture, supporting future research.
