interoperability

Playing around Computational BIM & Computational Design: the Twisted-Foils
These days I’m really regretting the good old flux.io and I really hope that soon returns in other guises. However, I have systematized a simple workflow that allows me to perform some practical interoperability operations (not live connections) between Revit+Dynamo and Rhino+Grasshopper. On the one hand for research purposes,

MC Wordcloud: Scripting as Creative expression of the Design
Scripting as creative expression of the Design. Workflow developed to generate the Apple iOS Developer Academy “Wordcloud” (window-frame of the Main Classroom). The need to create an ad hoc script arose from the need to adapt

Apple Developer Academy between Algorithmic Design and Construction Management – Main Classroom, concept and realization
This research describes the author’s experience in the design of the collaborative spaces of the Apple iOS Developer Academy (Naples). The intent is to explore the new frontiers of BIM using algorithmic tools to manage the formal and informative features of the project.

Thermal Perception Driven Adaptive Design for Wellbeing in Outdoor Public Spaces: Case Studies in Naples
The spread of digital technologies, aimed at improving the effectiveness of the technological and environmental project proposals, has transformed the modus operandi of architects and designers who approach environmental impact assessment, especially about public space designs.

Main Classroom – Chairs Positioning
Positioning of Main Classroom chairs by a cross-platform algorithms (Grasshopper+Dynamo by flux.io. Designer needs just drawing a line to position and to orient all MC chairs.

Façade Adaptive Component – Algorithms BIM modelling
Modelling a façade adaptive component by Grasshopper+Dynamo algorithms. Use of the two most popular visual scripting platforms in BIM and free form modelling.

Extract garden contours – Export DWG
Algorithms Aided design approach. Extracting garden contours by Grasshopper definition (by Kangaroo plugin), then importing polylines as DWG format into Revit model of polo Scientifico “Federico II” – San Giovanni a Teduccio (Apple iOS Developer Academy).

Model sharing – Totem concept
Model shared between designer (thesis’ author) and manufacturing company. By web application, Modelo, it’s easier than in the past sharing data model (and exploring it

iOS Developer Academy: progettazione-ottimizzazione
Dipartimento di Architettura DiARC – Università degli Studi di Napoli “Frderico II”, Napoli (Italia) Collaborazione come architetto designer con il prof. arch. Sergio Russo Ermolli per la progettazione e ottimizzazione degli spazi interni della nuova sede universitaria “Federico II” di San Giovanni (NA) destinati alla “iOS Developer Academy”.
