Abstract
This article presents the use of form operators during the design phase. This case study of three projects of BAAM agency shows the relevance of their use of form operators. It also shows the variety of forms that can be obtained from the same idea. The aim our work is to apply operators on forms and geometries to vary randomly.
BAAM is an architectural firm that applies the work of our research laboratory.
