Abstract
The article offers a brief analysis of the development of modern parametrical architecture within the conceptual framework of bionic forming. The mechanism of parametrical architecture object creation is explained, based on bionic approach to design as one of the most effective means of an interaction with environment realization, adoption, sustainable development provision. It describes such undeniable advantages as elaborate structural and decorative plastic and high variability of structural and disposal solutions. The article looks into the changes which are connected with the creation of new architectural language by the means of digital modeling tools. This language gives rise to special aesthetics of relaxed form which is free from architectonic regularity, involves jointing and interweaving of internal and external, embodies new architectonic imagery.
Real life buildings and designs are analyzed to illustrate an associative correlation of prototype from nature with its architectural realization. The work demonstrates the ways in which, via functional and ideological analogy with various natural world prototypes, principles of structural forming, material and physical characteristics, decorative and plastic components can be borrowed. It is demonstrated how properties of natural life which are an ideal exemplar and inspiration successfully recreate and develop (evolve) by means of parametric modeling – a powerful tool of modern design which has been actively developing during last decade.
It is proved that the imitation of natural laws and principles, which is the basis for bionic concept can be successfully realized by means of parametric design and a the level of development of modern building technologies and properties of new building materials can guarantee the realization of these projects.
