Abstract. A parametric model is understood as a geometric model, by changing the parameters of which different design options can be obtained.

The article presents a number of design concepts demonstrating not only the attractiveness of 3D technologies and 3D printing in the production of comfortable structures for various purposes, a high degree of personification of products, but also the possibilities of their design in digital form. From the point of view of the design process, the latter allows parametric design, with which it is possible to identify sets of values of product characteristics. The design parameters are process variables, the values of which can be selected by the developer. A parameterized drawing contains many variables that can have not only numeric, but also textual values that can be changed at any stage of their use. The examples considered in the article are intended to serve as a basis for determining a set of product parameters when designing using parametric form generation tools.

Thanks to this higher level of geometric freedom, design optimization becomes more accessible, since the complexity of geometry resulting from the optimization process is no longer a problem. On the other hand, the number of possible solutions increases significantly, so choosing the most suitable alternatives becomes more difficult. Currently, existing additive manufacturing technologies have achieved greater presence and recognition in the manufacturing sector, and at the same time, design and optimization tools have achieved the ability to respond to the new challenges that the new capabilities of these manufacturing technologies offer designers.

Parametric design tools and optimization methods in mutual integration are of interest in the field of teaching, as resources that can help students better understand some key aspects of each of the technologies considered, as well as help them explore new opportunities for using these technologies in productive scenarios and the opportunities that each of them offers to professionals in their activities.
