Represented Models and Typological Algorithms: The Role of Parametric Models for the Design of Product

The design project in its evolution from idea to object requires investigations that make use of comparison among all models. The models, to be useful to the design process, must be easily editable in order to make quick assessments of the product that is being designed. The algorithm design, so far implicitly present in the mind of the designer, becomes a sort of conduct code of the product that can be explained by leaving some modification variables open. The conception of the behaviour becomes an integral part of the product and this is being resolved by the construction of a logical sequence with which compel the form to comply with the basic functional parameters, useful to classify the model within a “typological family”.
