I am an architectural researcher focusing on parametric design and sustainable built environment. My research experience includes studies on the application of parametric design in architectural education, particularly using Rhino–Grasshopper to support students’ design thinking. I have also conducted research on sustainable architectural design for rural tourism, with a case study in Indonesia, formulating context-specific design strategies for rural tourism infrastructre based on environmental, cultural, and socio-economic considerations. I specialise in parametric modelling and have experience using environmental plugins in Rhino–Grasshopper for performance-based design simulations. I share tutorials about parametric modeling through my YouTube channel, Mr. Parametric (with over 8,000 subscribers). My research interests centre around computational design approaches to support sustainable and context-sensitive design.
