Plethora Project Unrolling Surfaces in Grasshopper | Bios Design Collective This Grasshopper definition is proof of concept for a VB component that unrolls developable surfaces to the XY plane. To make the component, I’ve adapted a rhinoscript by Andrew Kudless (of Matsys) to run in VB, enlisting the help of CCA student Ripon DeLeon to write the code.This example uses the VB component to create unrolled surfaces from 4 curves that I have distorted using the cage edit command in rhino. To use the definition on your own projects, simply choose any 4 curves to loft between in sequential order. The blocks of components are grouped somewhat clearly (I hope) so you can add more curves by copy-pasting more blocks and making the few required re-connections to make it work. For the above definition, I’ve added tabs along the edges of the unrolled surfaces for ease of attachment. Like this: Like Loading...
Free Python books Hi there guys. I am back again with yet another useful post. This one is going to be about free Python books. Most new Python programmers don’t realise that there are great Python books out there for free and due to their lack of knowledge they pay for expensive ones. Book list: I hope you liked today’s post. Here is a quick poll as well. Should I do screencasts as well?

CURVLABS | BRIAN HARMS first experiments in grasshopper « Growth Typologies lisa on 12|10|2011 Filled under: day-to-day, process Project: Fluent Gardens Hi! I wanted to generate a system which is based on the connection of these two schools, a new botanic museum, and the botanic garden itself. Therefor I drawed this diagramm and used it in grasshopper. So pasted to grasshopper: The radius of the polygons is calculated from the brightness of the pixel. For the polygons of the buldings I used the negativ of the drawing. green plygons = public space (on elevated level)white polygons = buildings of the pedagogic center, botanic museum and others.empty space = public, circulation space on the ground level. How I want to go on: I will now search for an “intelligent” grid.
WooJae's Blog | architecture or something like that o---FANCYWIRES--{>} Introduction: Parametric design | Rethinking Architecture | architecture and design blog What is parametric design ? There is no precise definition and there are other related terms and synonyms: generative, computational, digital, computer aided, associative. Basically it's far more sophisticated than using computer instead of drawing board. What is it for ? Everyday objects, data mapping and visualization, elevations, structures, floor plans, urban plans. Visual code It's quite easy to distinguish something designed using parameters and algorithms from the rest, so it gives us a message "I'm contemporary, I was rethinked:)" Urban design Wall design - Grasshopper Data vizualisation - Processing "NYTimes: 365/360 - 2009 (in color)", courtesy blprnt_van Software: for architects, designers:Rhino + GrasshopperFor designers who are exploring new shapes using generative algorithms, Grasshopper® is a graphical algorithm editor tightly integrated with Rhino’s 3-D modeling tools.
