elevation shot of the 3d model

grasshopper

this plugin for rhino is awesome, check it out

i started using it a couple of weeks ago, mainly because i wanted to try parametric design – nearly all of the progress images i’ve been posting where done with rhino + grasshopper + vray

I’ve been playing around mostly with arranging many elements, in this case apartment units and offices around surfaces/volumes… will illustrate this soon (i.e. diagrams!)

need to stop making white massing models… intention is to make the individual apartment and office units apparent… these models are making the building seem way too massive… trying to get a laser cut model done now but it doesn’t look like that will be for tonight~~

first modelling attempts for ground level…
