Contnuying with the investigation arond Grasshopper resources.
I started studying the kangaroo physics plugin for grasshopper, that allows structural analysis for domes, and some other physics effects on structures.
This is the first examle done with this plugin, where we can see how we can create a Gaudi domes, from the study of the catenary, using some forces to deform a rectangular mesh.
As a modullar project, when I saw her design, we decided to help each other. So I model her Idea in GH, and afterwards we do some shape / sun / shadows analysis to the model parsing the results to external files.
She has the law in ther mind, but she didn't know about GH, so I started a parametric model with the idea she had and this is the result of introducing a predefined law with several parameters in GH.
Of course the recursivity of this proccess was the main reason for using GH because we could adapt the shape and the law to several procces changes or evolution of the idea.
Structural design in grasshopper for a contest developped by Void7 with several engineer offices.
In the video below, we can see how the main volumes deliver their charges into the structural fachade with a parametric law for the length and location of the bars.
Hammam in Yenikapi (Istanbul). Design based on views. With a 3D Model of the city + Grasshopper analysis I detect the best position in the terrain and the altitude for having the best views (5 mosques + rest of the city + sea).
So, the final design are three buildings (3 programmes) that are optimized for having the best views in each programme.
A GH analysis for finding the best location for the building.
Made in GH and using Galapagos, this definition search for the location with the best views to some icons of the city (some mosques and the sea). So this point will be the germ for the rest of the building, based on views a different programmes.
In colaboration with Vicente Soler, Juan José Sánchez and Miguel López.
The vido shows a resume about the weather variaton along the year in Istanbul. It's made from weather information parsed from internet to a excel file, and represented with Grasshopper.
Along the video we can see a comparision between some weather features: relative dampness / rain fall, pressure / dampness, relative dampness / precipitation, avg temperature/ dew point temperature, wind / temperature.
It's a visual representation for the weather data:
a sound / noise analysis in Gran Via. This video is a sound representation / route thru Gran Via, where we can see this main sounds, that actually represents GRAN VIA.
This video was made during the first course of design with Nicolas Gutierrez, Juan Manuel Gonzalez and Roque Peña.
