Parametric Tower Excersie [grasshopper]

An excerise of a parametric tower definition made in Rhino Grasshopper , using the Canton Tower from IBA architects as a rference , more information on these project and download the definition at my web site.

Honeycomb Morphologies Update

The lastest update from my honeycomb morphologies research is already at the official site , you can go there to to check it out and download the definition.

Recursive Aggregations [rhinoscript]

Here is my last weekend experiment with rhinoscript , working with recursive agreggations , you can check out the project HERE

2010 is here !!!!

Thanks everyone for being with me this 2009 , I wish you an exciting 2010 !!!
Do you have any new years resolutions ? Here are mine.

Honeycomb Morphologies

A little preview of a Grasshopper definition I´m working on to generate a honeycomb structure system Im working to add several features , for example to be able to control the apertures of the systems according an external variable for example al the final work as well as the definition will be posted on my new site.

Grasshopper VBscript (excersise)

Getting started with VBscripting in Grasshopper , some images of an excercise made using Woo Jaes Sung tutorial you can see more about this and downlad the definition on my new site. HERE

Waffle Ribs:Rhino Grasshopper

Yes ! the classic waffle structures , I think this kind of definitions are very useful specially to those starting in their way of parametric design and of course Grasshopper, they have a wide range of applications that can go from architectural projects to conceptual furniture like this quick example I made. Check it out here.

Recursive tessellation

A quick study of Marco Vanuci´s work on recursive surface tessellations . CHECK IT OUT

Rhinoscript Pneumatic Caldding

Finally I have uploaded my research for generationg cushion like pneumatic panels you can see the info and download the script at my new site don´t forget to share it and leave your comments =).

Collaboration with Arkylab Mexico

Currently I am collaborating with Arkylab a Mexican architecture studio working on a proposal for an industrial eco park Im helping generating computational geometies for the project using recusive and subdivision algorithms we still at a conceptual development stage.
Here is a quick low quality render.

Pneumatic Panels Cladding Systems

Preview image of my rhinoscript of pneumatic cladding systems still some things an options to tweak but so far it´s looking good i hope to have it ready soon to start sharing, i will be posting a complete explanation of it on my new site so stay tuned !!!

Parametric Truss System

Hello guys this is a parametric truss exercise I made to see more about it please visit my new site here if you are interested in the definition please don´t forget to leave comments , friend me up and join the community thanks !!!

Finally the new designplaygrounds is here !!

Finally after many months of waiting I fianlly got the time to make an official website even do making this blog for the past year has been a great experience I thin its time to present my work in a more professional way, also I made the site to stay in touch with all the people who kindly visit my work I really worked hard implementing tools from different social media like : Twitter , Facebook, Didd , Stumble Upon etc.. all of the just to hear and share what you have to say.

Im also going to feature the work from other people so if you are making some interesting stuff please send it to me so i can show your work, Im working in some tutorials people keep asking me most of them regarding grashopper i think the new site will be an excellent plataform to distribute them.

In few words please visit my new site were you will soon find new works and more interesting content from other people www.designplaygrounds.com and don´t forget to friend me up on Twitter or Facebook. =)

Studio Banana collaboration

Last weekend I went to Madrid to visit the guys of Studio Banana and to give an introduction class of Parametric Design using Grasshoper for the students who attended the Rhinoceros Workshop of the studio, I had a great time visiting the studio and the people who works there.And I had the opportuniy to teach the studnets about the benefits of implementig parametric systems into their designs.

Processing Warm Up

After several weeks i finally was able to find some time this weekend to play again with processing
scince I got here to barcelona I have been very busy finding a place to live ,giving a lecture and organizing a workshop among other things.
This is a quick sketch I made for practice purposses here are some images generated by tweaking some of the parameters I wanted to post a video to show how its generated but currently at home I just have a very old pc and I cant record video I will use this skecth for a more complex application using traer physics library also I would like to implement some functionality with audio I hope to find some space the to work on this on the next days.
