Difference from Parametricism: Logic Comes from the Site, Not the Program

A building where the curves have practical reasons, distinguishing it from parametric design. While parametric design generates skins through algorithms—equidistant gradient grids, Voronoi meshes, self-similar fractal repetitions, where rules are mathematical—organic architecture's every curve corresponds to a concrete reason: a bend here to bypass a tree, an arch here to provide height below, a lowered section here to avoid obstructing the view behind. The curves lack repetitive patterns. Avoid: using equidistant gradient skin grids, creating openings with regularly repeating geometric meshes, making curves mathematically symmetrical or self-similar, or detaching the relationship between the skin and the interior space.

一棟曲線有實際理由的建築。參數化設計的表皮是由演算法生成的:等距漸變的格柵、沃羅諾伊的網格、自相似的碎形重複,規則是數學的;有機建築的每一道曲線都對應一件具體的事——這裡彎是為了繞過一棵樹、這裡拱起是為了讓下方有高度、這裡壓低是為了不擋住後面的視野。曲線沒有重複的規律。避免:使用等距漸變的表皮格柵、讓開口做成規則重複的幾何網格、使曲線呈現數學式的對稱與自相似、把表皮與內部空間的關係做成無關。
