Research on Algorithm Schema of Parametric Architecture Design Based on Schema Theory

Abstract

This paper mainly demonstrates the characteristics of the algorithm schema which constructs the generative mechanism of parametric architecture. By elaborating the schema theory in architecture design and the algorithm of parametric architecture design, it explicates that the algorithm has the same abstract logic structure as the schema. This structure projects the logic of architecture generation onto algorithm schema through our cognition about schematic structure, which can help us develop architectural form. In this paper, the method of using algorithm schema to develop the generated designs of architectural form has also been explored.
