Abstract
Abandoning the scale-model concept in favor of an abstract representation led us to the development of a digital design model based on point-clouds as design media. In this paper we examine the potential usage of point-clouds as design media. Extending the point-cloud model with a forth dimension represented as a numeric pointer to generative algorithms provides a parametric interface for the regeneration and alteration of the extended point-cloud model referred to as “Smart Cloud of Points”.
