Decoration is a means of expression closely related to design practices as a reflection of the conditions of the time and the aesthetic likes of society. The transformation of design and manufacturing tools according to the effects of technological developments has led to the emergence of new topics of discussion on decoration in architecture. The purpose of the study is to re-think the relationship between architecture and decoration in a digitalized world framework. In the historical process, data have been revealed on how decoration in architecture was dealt with. Through these data, the variable status that decoration expresses for the architectural practice is mentioned. In the framework of the study, examples of parametric designs produced using modern technologies, how interactive media surfaces, kinetic fronts impact on the understanding of decoration in the structure, are made by explanations. The impact of changes in the economic, social and cultural sense that occur in the process of digitalization and design on the aesthetic perception and therefore the conception of decoration has been studied. This concept, which is an abstract and dynamic state with the development of construction technologies, is discussed in the context of the intellectual direction of the digital age, design-production methods and aesthetic understanding.
