Hey,

This is the first project that I'm doing as an architect for a client. It is a simple elevation facade for a compact duplex and 2 1bhk houses on the second floor. I wanted to make a geometric pattern on one of the walls to enhance the elevation. 



I would be glad to share the sketchup model with you for you to play around with it and generate a pattern ideally on the first and second balcony walls. 

I will be attaching an image of my elevation…

Hallo Community,

Is there a plugin or a simple formula where i can insert the weather data (Global Illuminances) into a matrix and produce an isolux curve for sky?

The datas (i have them as excel sheet) should be converted like the picture in the attached file.

The Y-axis are the hours: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23

Hi,

I'm trying to use psychrometric chart but it crashes as I link the relative humidity.

Also, i tried to use analysis period in order to reduce the amount of data but it isn't accepted giving back a warningsaying  I can use only an .epw file that i did.

Any help?

I am trying to model a self-shaded freeform facade using Ladybug. The resulted mesh that I obtain from the 'shade' output from 'shadowRange' component looks incorrect or opposite. The meshes which should be sun-exposed are 'sun-shaded' in my model. Attached is the file. Need help to fix it. I would appreciate if somewone explain me the logic/algorithm to locate the 'self-shaded' meshes. Thanks. …

Hi Guys,

Very happy to let you know that our project Tangential Dreams, built for Burning Man 2016 (pictures below), was shortlisted for the Architizer Award! Designed entirely with Grasshopper3D, the project uses the tangents of helicoid curves to maximize off-the-shelf timber into an expressive installation. We stenciled 1,000 people's dream on the tangents for people to read as they climb and write on the structure.

I hope you can help us win this…
