The focus of this paper is that we want to give a brief introduction about the idea of Parametric Design (PD) and the use of data to inform the design process. The digital fabrication is not covered in detail in this document. The case study “Live Building” explains a sensory process. The project shows how to collect data, transformed and transported into a shape. Innovation is not only the approach of the draft, but the systematic procedure and the resulting diversity of solutions. The search for the geometric shape and the key to the concept will be answered in detail.

The project ‘Live Building’ was developed during a workshop LaN Live Parameters at the Institute IaaC in Barcelona with the technical and professional support of Luis Fraguada and Monika Wittig.
