This paper is aimed at promoting a reflection on architect Antoni Gaudí’s experimental method in the search for understanding the definition of the forms, structures, and constructive techniques applied by him in his various works, as in his processes of experimentation and formal modeling. In his legacy in the field of civil construction, we can highlight the development of the funicular method, known by the structural analysis and definition methodology that allows, in an original way, for the creation of the base geometry of his constructive elements through the association of traction experiments to their deformations and loads along their structure. In the field of architecture and civil engineering, the study of constructive techniques based on basic concepts of descriptive geometry and experimentation is of great importance in the field of digital technologies, as it enables the advancement of structural efficiency and plasticity, reinforced by the form-finding parametric modeling method currently. Therefore, to establish a parallel between the formal analysis worked by the Catalan architect and the current approaches of digital modeling, two of his works, Templo Expiatorio de la Sagrada Familia and Iglesia de la Colònia Guell, will be highlighted, which will be studied for their technical and formal effectiveness with the aid of parametric modeling programs.
