Welcome to the biggest parametric wedding of the month.
Where Design weds Algorithm.
Curves woo us. The linearity within their boundless edges fascinate us.
Patterns dazzle and rhythms rattle us.
Say hello to these bridesmaids.
We’ve been sneaking wishful glances at parametric designs throughout our architectural endeavor.
Running our hands over the undulations and skimming each void with darting eyes.
Lets have a look at the craziest photo-shoot of parametric walls that won our hearts, hands and fed the hungry guest within us!

Museo Soumaya definitely calls for a limited edition piece.
Feast your eyes over the fish tailed beauty of crafted by the Mexican architect Fernando Romero. This private museum, conjoined with metallic hexagonal plates is a non-profit cultural institution in the city of Mexico.

Guess the city of skyscrapers has groundscrapers too after all. This large seashell hoards life within it. A Zaha Hadid and UN Studio creation, the foamy curves of the Burnham Pavilion, Chicago act as a perfect backdrop for a romantic rendezvous.

Dig into the World’s largest wooden structure.
That one dish you officially cannot get enough of. This is my favourite delicacy as its carefully designed with wood, nuts and bolts, and more wood. Eco- friendly and exquisite. German architect Jurgen Mayer has designed the structure as a service to the city of Seville, Spain, spreading shade, innovation and love.

Lights make everything more beautiful and special.
Here is the extraordinary construction built over the F1 racing track in Abu Dhabi. The prestigious dreamboat of the Viceroy Abu Dhabi Hotel. Its exquisite roof profile took the world by storm when it was inaugrated in 2009, shooting Asymptote Architects to fame!!

The curvaceous swerves with rain-proofing surely tells a pretty story, one of care and concern. Walking under the stunning Pond Pavilion at Chicago’s Lincoln Park Zoo is a experience catered to by the Nature Boardwalk. Spun by Chicago-based Jeanne Gang, a bright and ingenious architect, she designed this as part of an effort to uplift the energy of the zoo.

Herzog de Meuron Yes sometimes we have a surprise performance. always teach us a thing or two. Everyone has this great misconception that parametricism is completely about curves. Yes they are sensual, but its topped with code, the algorithm and the perfect pattern you achieve for the desired design. The Bird’s Nest is the perfect example of linear yet arced intelligent design.

Who’s gonna catch the bridal bouquet?
A toast to Studio 505 for their exotic creation. The stainless steel petals forming a facade over the exhibition rooms and conference center are a true visual treat. If this were my conference hall, I’d have a meeting the whole year. In China.

How’s that for a frosted trailing veil?
MAD Architects delivered the best with their Harbin Opera House and its awe-striking.
Right from the exteriors to the interiors every inch is stitched with perfection and elegance.
The wedding bells are ringing.
And so is the resonance that between symbolism, globular design and parametric algorithms. Right from the moment design went digital, it became easier for architects to express our sinuous formulation. Gona are the days when drafters were handleed with care, and they will be missed. But with everyone scavenging for hypnotising and scavenging designs, algorithmic design is being pushed to its maximum.
The tug lies on all sides.
Yet what happens when we strike the perfect balance between design and code?
The amalgamation of aesthetics, innovation, and symbolism?
BOOM!
There goes the confetti!
JUST MARRIED
