Prototipos modulares paramétricos basados en tecnologías digitales para niños de 1 a 5 años

Abstract

Abstract: This research designs modular parametric prototypes based on digital technologies for children aged 1 to 5 years, taking as a design basis the anthropometric measures of infants, the activities typical of the growth stage, the technical and architectural fundamentals of parametric design, and the constructive technology at micro and macro levels of the medium, the city of Loja, Ecuador. The main objective of this study is to design modular parametric prototypes based on digital technology concepts focused on children aged 1 to 5 years to encourage and strengthen motor skills; understanding parametric architectural concepts to determine the characteristics of the required prototypes, experimenting with their materialization in the Fab Lab UTPL workshop, which are of a playful type focused on the specific needs of early childhood, through documentary collection of parametric design, user characteristics, and an architectural approach that allows the materialization of the proposal at various scales, simplifying constructive processes according to the medium in which they develop, children in early childhood in the city of Loja.
