Parametric Design Process of Facade Elements with Characteristics of Fractal Geometry: Development, Evaluation and Application

Mariano, Pedro Oscar Pizzetti; Pereira, Alice Theresinha Cybis

Conference full papers:

This article deals with the use of the characteristics of fractal linear geometry and the different knowledge related to the application of its patterns in architectural elements, considering their compositional potentialities. For this, a theoretical and practical trajectory was developed, such as understanding the characteristics of fractal geometry and the existing software and methods for its reproduction. As a result, a parametric process was developed that allows to recreate fractal patterns in architectural elements, making it possible to identify the necessary steps for their elaboration, identifying the potentialities of their use and the skills necessary to reproduce similar parametric processes.
