title = "Parametric modeling in form-based urban design code for high-dense cities",
abstract = "The parametric modeling capabilities were established to support architecture design and building processes. While in urban design, it is still in the relative infancy. This paper aims to extend parametric approaches to multi-scenario tests and modification in large scale urban design. Tsim Sha Tsui (TST), a super high-dense area of Hong Kong, here works as a study context. Through marrying Building Information Modeling (BIM) into Form-Based Code (FBC) generation of TST, this research argues that 1) as a critical response to conventional zoning, FBC has potential to be an alternative approach to urban design of high-dense cities; 2) parametric modeling can support FBC implementation with directly visualized consequences that paper-based regulation cannot express; 3) adopting parametric FBC in high-dense cities has both benefits and drawbacks. Thus, this research attempt to fill the gap among the current approaches by generating parametric form-based urban design code for high-dense cities.",
