Surface Geometry

Sounds really stupid but I was not sure if the script was able to run using a referenced surface created in Rhino, it can, you simply have to unplug a bunch of things to get it to work. Next thing is so make the origin point adaptive, so you can bake the geometry onto existing Rhino site plans, maybe introduce a separate focus point for the geometry and finally make a rotation input for it.

LESS IS MORPH

I would like to begin a format where we can share our knowladge and create real life architecture and design components . Designers alongside with the programmers! I am currently taking a studio in digital architecture and if there is one things that screams out is the lack of technical knowladge architects have as to programming .

I wish to create a dialog in which we all can share our knoladge and dreams and create together parametric designs which will be a collective journey. I… Continue

Backfeeding Parametric Generation... without a Rhino geometry

My first experiments began using grasshopper without references to Rhino geometry because a year ago I didn't have a hundred bucks to buy Rhino so I didn't want to use up the 25 saves on a Grasshopper model, After all Rhino does have a lot of geometry laid out within the "blank" document, it basically describes 3D space using a Cartesian Coordinate System right? Well, if that is true, than you can exploit it!

A year later and I've purchased Rhino, which is wonderful, but I've continued… Continue
