Paper explores the implementation of parametric methods for urban analysis and examination of sustainable development strategies, with a specific focus on Česma, a suburban settlement in Banja Luka municipality. Field surveys combined with residents’ engagement gather comprehensive datasets on Česma's current state. Utilizing the parametric software Grasshopper and Rhinoceros 6, various urban and rural factors influencing the settlement's dynamics are evaluated. Subsequently, by employing a parametric decision-making process, optimized potentials are detected to improve residents' living standards and urban development of the settlement. As a quantitative research method, parametric tools are essential in generating a comprehensive set of maps, 2D and 3D visual data. The collected data are subjected to qualitative analysis and adapted to context as well as sustainability and resilience criteria in the built environment.
