The ability to analyze performance is an important quality of parametric design. Especially during discussions with curators, it became clear how much potential there is in the ability to analyze object data and design data in a parametric setup while using a central database. Several areas of analysis emerged. One can think of: Security: are…
Grasshopper / Rhino3D
In this proof of concept, we’ll explore an example where we let the computer do the work for us. A parametric algorithm in grasshopper can work as a design tool where the user interacts with sliders and data. But in this example, we will explore a proof of concept where we let the computer present…
This is an initial Proof of Concept for Gallerbee worked out using an exchange between an online Excel document that interacted with a 3D design via Grasshopper, Excel was chosen because it is easy to use for initial testing and is a frequently chosen program by exhibition organizations. The following data can be processed in…
Grasshopper3D can also be used for graphic design, i.e. parametric graphic design for 2-dimensional applications. This post is about building an image tracer based on brightness and contrast.
When teaching Grasshopper, it is sometimes nice to take a slightly different approach. For example in the form of a game. DragRace is about uploading scores to an online database and trying to win with the fastest score!
For sailmaker Houtkoop.nl StudioFG has developed several scripts to automatically generate drawings for hems and other fabric parts. Read here about this project.
With great pleasure we again teach the course Technoledge in which we realize a pavilion together with master students of TU Delft and PWR Wroclaw from design to realization in 7 weeks. The basis for the production is the parametrically controllable flexmould.
