Abstract
Parametric design is a tool that emphasizes the relationships between elements in the design and modeling processes. It combines the power of visual computer scripting with the design process. Unlike the fields of architecture and engineering, parametric design has been relatively nonexistent in landscape architecture until very recently. The objective of this project is to explore how parametric design can be used as a functional tool in a typical landscape design project - in this case, a trail design. The result of this study is a coded model that can serve as a tool to improve design efficiency in professional practice and inspire other ideas for parametric design in landscape architecture.
