Cross-Cultural Approaches to Facade Prototyping and Material Narratives

    Hello, everyone. I've seen intriguing variances in how regional centers approach early-stage design. Some civilisations rely significantly on physical mockups. They prioritise tactile prototyping and hyper-local architectural narrative from the outset. Others depend only on parametric digital scripts to guide early shape experimentation. How does your team strike a mix between physical, tactile exploration and advanced digital procedures during early concept design? Are we losing our tactile connection to materials too soon in the digital draft phase? I'd want to hear your firm's strategy.
