Folding concepts in architecture have been widely known as one of the fundamental principles of representing spatial structure and form, and due to their morphological specificity, they have also been widely applied to the work of contemporary digital architecture. However, it is true that it is used only in form without efficient control or strategy in the application process. This work will typify architectural folding techniques from a traditional perspective, and implement them through digital parametric design, while studying the interconstrains between traditional classification and digital application. The progression of the paper first classifies the folding architectural theory according to Paul Jackson's taxonomy, and applies parametric design techniques according to these criteria. The adjustment factors are derived in the application process and the correlation between variables and formulation is identified. This study will determine the interrelationship between the performance of the outer skin and the design through performance simulation.
