Grasshopper « Attitude Geometries Cellular Automata Building Propotional studies of a building facade. These videos shows an animation how to use the generative design methods in architecture and design. Methods: Synthesis, Celluar Automata, zelluläre Automaten, Parametrics There are different initial cells at the bottom. There are different types boxes. Curve to Surface « PARAMETRIC[ation] _ motion analysed - person walking up stairs There are three curves that were chosen to represent a person walking up a stairs; the motion of each of the legs and the motion of a person’s head. The curves from the legs overlap each other and skip a step each time while the curve from the head is a continuous one that moves in the same motion at each every step. By taking these curves and shifting the top curve down, I have chosen to develop a model that has two different surfaces defined by the head motion on the top and the feat motion on the bottom. _ curve analysis
designcoding Maybe a huge kitsch for contemporary architecture, I know, but a good example of a fundamental problem of constructing geometric relationships. In ARCH362 today, we’ve examined the geometric modeling process that opens us parametric relationships just by converting it into a diagram of design history. You may follow the construction of such a diagram step by step and see the possible parameters emerged from it. Only rule of this construction is the connection from the left side of the component (node) represents an input to that node, and the connection from the right side of the component represents an output of that node. A couple of numbers are the input of a “polygon” node, while the output of that node is a curve (the polygon). Then, this goes on as we use that emerged curve as an input of a loft “node”.
SJET SJET LLC, started by Skylar Tibbits in 2007, was initiated as platform for experimental computation + design and has grown into a multidisciplinary research based practice. SJET crosses disciplines from design, fabrication, computer science to robotics... SJET is a direct result of an endless search for more... Skylar Tibbits' research focuses on self-assembly and programmable material technologies for novel manufacturing, products and construction processes.
Rhino ++ Grasshopper – Plethora Project Plethora-Project.com is an initiative to accelerate computational literacy in the frame of architecture and design. It aligns with the "show me your screens" motto of the TopLap live-coding group attempting to get rid of Obscurantism in digital design. Directed by Jose Sanchez Contact me at : jomasan@gmail.com Bio: Jose Sanchez is an Architect / Programmer / Game Designer based in Los Angeles, California. AKT (Sawako & Panagiotis) « Scriptedbypurpose Sawako and Panagiotis at AKT Currently they are working as computational design researchers in Adams Kara Taylor based in London. They have worked on projects by well known architectural practices in the United Kingdom including Zaha Hadid Architects, Future Systems, and Foreign Office Architects in the development of architectural design involving complicated geometries. Our research aims in developing design solutions that respect criteria of structural efficiency and architectural intentions by interrogating the intrinsic properties of forms and their embedding space.
laboratories teaching (Research as Speculation) Francois Roche with R&Sie(n) is developing the research 'Uncertainties' since the "i've heard about" experiment, in Paris, in 2005, through 8 courses in Master Class and Cross Studio (U-Penn + Columbia in 2006 / Columbia in 2007 / Angewangde + Columbia in 2008 / USC + Columbia in 2009-10-11 / Upenn + Columbia in 2013). Francois Roche invited : Stephan Henrich (4 times-Upenn-Angewandte-USC...) and Ezio Blasetti (4 times Gsapp) and Devin Jerrigan (Upenn) in 2013, GwillJahn (RMIT) in 2012-13, SuQi (USC) in 2011, Miranda Romer (Gsapp) in 2011, David Pigram (Gsapp) in 2010, as Marc Fornes (4 times GSAPP), David Benjamin, Manfred Herman and Mat Staudt / Blog below on multiple cessions / Including Scenario+Script+Design Access to Material Expertise>>>

Achim Menges Design Research Architecture Product Design In 2010, the Institute for Computational Design (ICD) and the Institute of Building Structures and Structural Design (ITKE) designed and constructed a temporary research pavilion. The innovative structure demonstrates the latest developments in material-oriented computational design, simulation, and production processes in architecture. The result is a bending-active structure made entirely of extremely thin, elastically-bent plywood strips.
new-territories French + English Version ‘From Radicalism to Idiotcracy, From Y.F. to P.S.’ At cross-purposes As multipurpose as a Swiss army knife, shunted back and forth every which way between art and architecture, he is at once an alibi, a foil, a spiritual father, a defeated ideologue whose scars are an atonement (the deafness, whether real or feigned – we’ll come back to it later) and rather handy… a paper architect, an ideologue, the kind of brand that keeps on giving, still legitimized by the French establishment, that funny alter cocker Yona Friedman® with the slight Slavic accent that makes you smile, whose foibles everyone forgives, since they’re so charming and “inoffensive.” Yona Friedman® is perfectly adaptable… inflatable balloons to mimic the Spatial City,[1] floating cartons filed with salon-utopian political phraseology, pathetic and pathological.
