Their parametric nature is of great advantage as they can be modified and updated as needed, e.g. when there has been a maintenance, a process of change, a new discovery, etc. Parametric libraries can contain different kind of objects: constructive elements, architecture-language components, constructive techniques, etc.
During the last years, the Golden Tower (Seville) has been the object of several studies and researches which have revealed considerable data about its history, architecture, constructive details, characterization of the design materials, surrounding environment and its consequences for the conservation of this monument.
The choice of a material implies a suitable constructive technique and an appropriate architecture.
The goal is to achieve balanced solutions between energy efficiency, constructive feasibility, building physics, cost, architecture and use value.
In the history of stone traditional architecture there are constructive solutions which, with the same climatic conditions and materials used, produce a different final result.
We need a sea change and should take the constructive approach by designing computer architectures where predictable timing is a first-order design factor.
Architecture should provide a constructive resolution for the future.
Here, based on the observation that a formal software architecture description itself is a constructive composition mechanism, I illustrate how the use of software architecture styles can sometimes alleviate the first problem and solve the latter.
These investigations are guided by a constructive and unified approach for both target architectures.
Moneo theorised on the need for contemporary design to exclude the pursuit of form, with the idea that architecture, first and foremost, is a constructive and social project.
