("Hello, city") Strumenti parametrici per il progetto urbano

How do you design a city?
The city is a living organism, constantly evolving, shaped by the interaction between data, constraints, and design ideas. In this context, the parametric approach and its computational tools allow the generation of a wide range of urban scenarios, created through spatial and temporal variations. These scenarios are not final outcomes, but represent the entire process required to reach them.
The process is applied to the former Thyssen area in Turin, in order to test the potential and limitations of algorithmic thinking in urban design. Within this academic research framework, (“Hello, city”) - like (“Hello, world”) in computer programming- experiments with new tools and development environments.
