Abstract | ||||
The seamless connection between indoor and outdoor environments has become a critical aspect of contemporary architecture, enhancing user experience and promoting sustainability. Traditional design methods often fall short in achieving this integration, prompting the need for innovative approaches. Computational design offers a transformative solution by enabling architects to manipulate complex geometries, optimize spatial relationships, and simulate performance outcomes with precision. This research paper explores the integration of interior and exterior spaces in architectural design using computational design strategies. The integration of indoor and outdoor environments is crucial in contemporary architecture, enhancing user experience and promoting sustainability. Traditional design methods often fail to achieve this integration, leading to the need for innovative approaches. Computational design offers a transformative solution by allowing architects to manipulate complex geometries, optimize spatial relationships, and simulate performance outcomes with precision. The study reviews existing literature on interior-exterior connections, explores various computational design methodologies, and analyzes three exemplary projects that effectively employ computational strategies. The findings demonstrate that computational design not only facilitates innovative architectural solutions but also improves functionality, sustainability, and user satisfaction. The paper concludes with practical recommendations for architects and suggestions for future research to further explore the potential of computational design in achieving seamless interior-exterior connections. | ||||
