AB This contribution briefly describes the main philosophy of the new book Parametric Geometry of Curves and Surfaces: Architectural Form-Finding (Alberto 2021) and how this philosophy is supported by concepts in the book. The mathematical investigations of such concepts are examined in detail while explaining their novelty and leading application in architectural elements. In addition to this, we focus on the importance of parametric objects from a mathematical point of view in contemporary architecture, and on understanding the geometry underlying the curves and surfaces which conform architectural manifestations. The essence of the book is illustrated by a couple of examples, together with a brief overview of its contents.
