The results allow us to affirm that the parametric modeling stimulates creativity, therefore allowing combination of different parameters, that result in unexpected discoveries.

O objetivo deste artigo é refletir sobre o uso da modelagem paramétrica em duas experiências didáticas. O primeiro experimento envolveu recursos do programa Paracloud e sua relação com o programa Rhinoceros, que resultou na produção de modelos físicos produzidos com o auxílio da cortadora a laser. No segundo experimento, os estudantes produziram algoritmos no Grasshopper, resultando em famílias de estruturas e coberturas. O objeto de estudo são os algoritmos e modelos físicos e digitais resultantes desta experimentação. Os resultados obtidos nos permitem afirmar que a modelagem paramétrica estimula a criatividade, pois permite a combinação de diferentes parâmetros, que resultam em descobertas inesperadas.
