Weaverbird is a topological modeler that contains many of the known subdivision and transformation operators, readily usable by designers. Instead of doing the work repeatedly, or sometimes using complicated scripts, this plug-in helps reconstructing shapes as meshes, subdivides and refines even polyline lists, and helps preparing the model for fabrication. Weaverbird is the first released addon for Grasshopper but the group is new, so please join it to participate in discussions, ask questions…See More

In July 2012 two leading independent schools of architecture—The Technical University of Graz, Faculty of Architecture and IE School of Architecture & Design, Madrid/Segovia—will join forces to conduct the IE/TUG Summer School in Madrid, one of Europe’s most dynamic capital cities. The intensive, 8-day, studio-based design workshop is open to enthusiastic architecture students at the undergraduate and graduate level, as well as students from other disciplines, and those who have recently…See More

A daily geometric problem is presented to the grasshopper 3d community. Degrees of difficulty vary by day.The idea is to sharpen skills, challenge, or a fun exercise: Useful for beginners wanting to learn, or as an alternative to your morning coffee + cross-word puzzle. Rules:Contributions can be posted by anyone. Either selected from a previously posted problem from the general discussion (please acknowledge original poster), a selection from one of the many grasshopper+ primers (please…See More

Excerpt:...The complexity of the interconnected and often competing information required to shape a building - be it explicitly describable or not - still remains a challenge for contemporary computational processes. A future architectural practice needs to cultivate a critical awareness of such limitations in order to develop successful future strategies for design interaction and implementation of computational possibilities. This critical dialogue aims to expand the findings of…See More
