A few weeks ago I posted a GIF on Twitter that showed a few images from an earlier version of the Project Rediscover graph. I created this in a very manual, low-tech way: firstly, I selected a number of designs in Refinery, one-by-one, took a screenshot of each and then used GIMP to build an […]

I've mentioned this topic a few times in recent weeks, so it was really time to sit down and put pen to paper (or fingers to keyboard). This one was a lot of fun to dig into, and I think the results will be of interest to people. Parallelism is something that I've been tracking […]

A video of the final project presentations and the awards ceremony from the recent Dynamo and Generative Design Hackathon in London has been posted to YouTube by the UK Dynamo User Group. It's a great way to get a sense of the various projects at the event, something a number of people have asked me […]

Today the call for proposals opens for AU 2019 – and its accompanying Forge DevCon – in Las Vegas. I was informed of this fact by an email which very creepily contained a photo of me describing something or other with my hands. (Jeremy Tammik speculated that I was once again talking about zombies. 🙂 […]

The last few days have been a lot of fun, as some of you will have noticed on my Twitter or LinkedIn feeds. Since the last post, where I announced the fact we've been working on Project Rediscover, I've spent quite a bit of time reworking the graph to have more reusable chunks. Here's a […]

I've talked before about Project Discover: the project where The Living used generative design to explore layout options for the new Autodesk office in the MaRS district of Toronto. As the project was run before Project Refinery was available – and so didn't make use of a Refinery-compatible graph – we've been working on a […]

As a follow-up to this recent post, I decided to add a couple of metrics to the previous graph and try it out with Refinery. And here's the updated graph for you to try for yourselves. The first metric relates to the pathfinding capability, and I've called it "Access". There are a few things going […]

Many of you will have been happy to see the extent of the features announced last week for Revit 2020. It's great to see Dynamo 2.1 integrated, for instance: It seems the Dynamo version is being tied specifically to Revit, which is an interesting development. I assume this is driven by the need to manage […]

I've been meaning to create a post introducing the use of the Space Analysis package for a few weeks, now, but with various trips it's been impossible to find the time. Anyway, here it is, at last. You can start by downloading the graph we'll be walking through in this post. Here's a picture of […]

Our friend in Munich, Jacqueline Rohrmann, has recorded a fantastic 24-minute introduction to Project Refinery and posted it to her YouTube channel under her That BIM Girl pseudonym: I really like the way Jacqueline steps through how to get started with Refinery, but also "does the math" and validates the results generated by Refinery for […]
