Abstract

The symbolic approach is used in creating architectural designs that have meaning and a strong attachment to users, history, social, culture, and character of society or community, where space and architectural elements become symbols and storytellers. This physical symbolic manifestation is tried to be explored through the digital architecture process to produce a more optimal design development. Most studies focused on how to find the symbolic meaning in architecture, but this study discussed the integration of symbolic approach through digital architecture innovation and how to explore it in the architectural studio. The purpose of this exploration is to form and strengthen the symbolic elements of the architecture through digital architecture process. Research methods used are exploratory and experimental study of the applied design stages, by including the simulation stage of building performance and parametric design, to find the symbolic elements in architecture. In this study, digital architecture methods were found that can be applied and architectural elements that could be taken as the manifestation of a symbolic approach in architecture.
