Abstract

This chapter highlighted the historian background of Parametric Modeling that was rooted in architecture thousands of years ago, Ancient Egyptians, Greek, Roman, and others used mathematical relations as an application for construction, dividing lands and designing Temples.
According to researches, ancient Egyptians architects were the first to create theirs Facades using proportions, geometrical rules and mathematical relations, and that represents the simplest form of parametric design.
However, the Greeks were the first to apply many influential theories which have sure applied mathematics, and consequently techniques similar to parametric architecture developed nowadays.
It discussed also using this concept in the nineteenth and the twentieth century through the work presented by Gaudi, Kiesler, Sullivan, Moretti and Otto.
All of these attempts of using this methodology in forming go under the name: “Analogue Parametric Modeling”. Which is the parametric modeling before the contemporary applications of PM in architecture within the digital age.
Parametrical Modeling during analogue age was a primitive application for the parametric methodology that concerned only with designing facades or forms with certain geometrical proportions, to assure the aesthetics aspects in design. It also reflects the primary knowledge with its simple mathematics, and lack of technology.
While, Parametrical modeling applications during the digital age started to develop from designing facades or forms with certain proportions into the core of the design process.
Their role in architecture can be summarized in three generations, these generations reflect clearly the information technology progression in hardware, software, and their applications in architecture throughout the previous century. The first generation shows pure applications on mathematical equations, second one is based on creating relations between geometrical objects, and the third is the contemporary application that represents the most powerful and mature through using algorithms
