Abstract

Nowadays, the parametric design is one of the design approaches or method that architect and designer believe can be a tool for analyzing the possibility of geometric deformation and easily anticipating it by changing parameters. The parameters were changed through the parametric design software, which allows the user or designer to specify relationships between the various parameters in the design process. Still, architecture students were required to be able to use a design software. Students used a design software primarily to help them to develop the design concept or to apply their design analysis. Arguably, the student's ability of a design software impact on their creativity of form studies or design exploration. Furthermore, limited of design features in the design software was an obstacle for the student when they found it took a long time to explore the 3-dimensional model or not easily developed. That reason was believed to affect the quality of design that proposed by architecture students in schematic design and development phase in Architecture Design Studio. The research was done with the correlational descriptive approach. This research introduced a parametric design software to architecture students at the Technology University of Yogyakarta. The software in this research was Rhinoceros and Grasshopper. The respondents in this study were selected, they are 100 people consist of the second and third year of architecture student. Data collected using a Likert questionnaire that contains responses and suggestion after following a series of parametric design software training. In summary, the results of this study show that students were satisfied with their form studies or exploration that created using a parametric design software. Their skill on the design software slightly affects the creativity based on the number of form studies.
