Grasshopper

algorithmic modeling for Rhino

Information

Space Syntax

Space Syntax is a theory of architecture and built environment that seeks to explain the effect of spatial configurations on behavioral patterns of people. SYNTACTIC tools bring Space Syntax theory into parametric design workflows. More information on syntactic design methodology:

My PhD dissertation (see chapters 3 & 4)

Designing with Space Syntax

Syntactic Design Methodology

For more information, videos, news and updates you can visit the following website. 

See a video demo-tutorial here

The plugin is available for download here: https://genesis-lab.dev/products/syntactic/

This plugin is completely compatible with SpiderWeb for Grasshopper and we hereby thank Richard Schaffranek for all we have learned from this extremely useful plugin

NEW VERSION WAS RELEASED ON JANUARY 25, 2015. 

UPDATE: Genesis Lab [webpage][website] is to modernize, open-source, and develop the toolkit starting in December 2021. Stay tuned for updates through my YouTube Channel and ResearchGate

Hi, All components are ready. We are just wrapping all our VB codes into a GHA.

Congratulations for the work, Pirouz and Samaneh! Your work has encouraged me to work hard. Since I discovered Grasshopper a few months ago I have been learning at a time I have created a generative algorithm to create program diagrams like your plug-in but simpler (I have just started learning Vb.net so I have used components of grasshopper, kangaroo and spiderweb). I finished today and I can´t wait to start with the floor plan generator. (I am discovering computer engineering and I am delighted).

I would like to know your opinion about the best way to create the floor plan generator, I am a little lost, I don´t know if to use voronoi, rectangles o something like this (sure you know it):http://graphics.tudelft.nl/~rval/papers/lopes.GAMEON10.pdf

If I find an interest algorithm do not hesitate that I will share it here. Obviously I am not the badass but I would like to help in this exciting issue.

Here is the video of program diagram generator

Pirouz, the seminar video looks great. When will you be uploading the new release? Look forward to it.

Hi Yonghwan, Help descriptions of the components contain some information. For further information on the intuitive meaning of the measures, you can have a look at our papers and the references cited in them:

http://cumincad.architexturez.net/doc/oai-cumincadworks.id-ecaade20...

http://www.sss9.or.kr/paperpdf/mmd/SSS9_2013_REF050_P.pdf

You can also google the names of the measure + Space Syntax and you will find papers on the subjects. 

I hope these help.

Hi

I was using your Space Syntax plug-in very well.

But, I had a problem i perfectly can't understand the four elements, integration value, control value, Entrophy value, Choice value in your Plug in.  

Can I ask for a more detailed description of The four elements on syntax theory?

Regards

Hi Juan Carlos, Thanks for your compliments. If you mean the rectangles we show in a video about Plan Layout process, those methods are not yet included in this version of the plugin; as one of the algorithms is not finalized. For printing the results, we will probably add some functions to the  next release. For the time being, you may use the option to capture view-ports of Rhino itself. I hope this helps.

Hi, great job and great idea¡ I only had a probem i can´t organize rectangles and i would really like to get results as pdf. Thanks.

Hi Yonghwan, we can introduce a colored mesh output for the next release. The current component just previews the graphs, and you cannot bake it. But, it is not difficult for us to add this feature. So, you can wait for the next release. In the meantime, I might post a temporary solution here if my schedule allows. Thanks for suggesting this feature!
