  1. Summary

The Iberoamerican Society of  Digital Graphics (SIGRADI) brings together architects, designers and artists related to the new digital media and configures a partner of similar organizations in Europe (eCAADe), North America (ACADIA), Asia / Oceania ( CAADRIA) and Arab and North Africa countries(ASCAAD).

 

SIGRADI holds an annual conference where the latest applications and technologies possibilities for digital graphics  are discussed with the participation of leading national and international experts.

 

Eighteen SIGRADI Congresses have already taken place over Iberoamerican territory. In 2015, the XIX Congress of of Iberoamerican Society of Digital Graphics will be held in Florianopolis, Brazil, organized by the Federal University of Santa Catarina as an initiative of the Postgraduate Courses in Architecture (PÓSARQ) and Design (PósDesign).

 

The chosen theme “Project Information for interaction” reveals one of the most important ways that technology has offered to improve the design process by integrating information into the elements of digital graphic in a parametric way. This integration allows many design professionals to interact on the same model, enabling simulations, materializations, revisions  with data more close to the reality, avoiding errors and wastes. Projects with highest social responsibility can be performed by inserting this new way of designing in education and professional practices. So, this conference is dedicated to give time and space for presentations and discussions of researches and experiences in this area applied to the various fields such as Architecture, Urbanism, Design, Animation, Arts, among others.

 

Looking into another perspective, this issue also brings the concept of Smart Cities, where the provision of  information integrated with graphics inserted in the towns components (streets, open areas, buildings and objects), allow more responsible interactions, generating sustainable and collaborative  actions among citizens.

  1. Topics
