Abstract
Computer aided design usually refers to the use of drawing. This study has a discussion on digital and craft design, which is based on the advantages of parametrization. The discussion of parametrization is about the integration of design conditions, manufacturing problems, and checking the safety problems in the crib, the results show that the parametrization of design conditions and modeling logic is helpful to check the practical problems as an evaluation mechanism. The advantages stem from the concept of the visualization program in Grasshopper (GH), which is a parametric tool works with the interconnected components to make definitions and get modeling results. The GH visual program is easy for designers to understand without programming languages, and carry on design editing, modification, and extract data for fabrication and evaluation, contributing to the customization of craft design.
