08 Revolutionizing Design: Embedding Intelligence in Parametric Models with Ping Hsiang Chen

In this podcast episode, we talk with Ping Hsiang Chen, who is a senior architect and computational designer at DAR and previously at Zaha Hadid Architects.

We discuss the importance of computational design in the holistic design process beyond concept stage, the importance of continuous learning, and Ping Hsiang describes how he developed a computational design model in Zaha that embeds design intelligence and possible feedbacks for easy modification. Beyond typical computational design, this process takes into account how potential design revisions can be addressed that come from external sources like the clients, municipality, consultants or anyone else on board.
