Early Design Stages

This paper by Diego Apellániz, Panu Pasanen, Christoph Gengnagel, presents an approach for implementing life-cycle assessment (LCA) in the early design stages of a building project based on the new plugins for Rhino and Grasshopper of One Click LCA, which aims to contribute to fight climate change from within the construction industry.

Parametric Design System

This thesis by Jonathan Byrne, Philip Cardiff, Anthony Brabazon and Michael O’Neill, describes Traditional CAD tools that generate a static solution to a design problem. Parametric systems allow the user to explore many variations on that design theme.

Agent based Torus

In this grasshopper example file you can use the Culebra plugin to flock a set of random points on a torus surface.

Morphogenetic Design

This issue by Helen Castle, explores morphogenesis pertains that not only to the development of form and structure in an organism, but also to an organism’s evolutionary development over time.

Twisted Ribbons

In this grasshopper example file you can create a series of animated twisted ribbons on any periodic Nurbs surface.
