I've been spending a lot of time talking about the work we're doing with Dynamo and Refinery – especially as it relates to our plan to share a version of the "Project Rediscover" graph at AU London 2019. But there's more my team is hoping to be able to share in mid-June at Tobacco Dock: […]

This is "one of those weeks", with presentations in Munich on Wednesday, Barcelona on Thursday and London on Friday. I haven't had a week like this since the old DevDays tours. The good old days! I arrived on Tuesday night at Munich Airport. Wednesday's event was the Automotive Innovation Forum in Munich. It's the first […]

Over the last few months I've been working with my colleagues in The Living to add important – but still slightly speculative – capabilities into the Generative Urban Design tool we've been working on for Van Wijnen. The opportunity presented itself back at Autodesk University 2018, when Lorenzo Villaggi and I were discussing the state […]

The week before last I headed across to Zurich for the day for meetings. During the afternoon I passed by the NEST building in Dübendorf – home of the DFAB House project – to meet with NEST's Director, Reto Largo, and talk more about our plans to collaborate. To learn a bit more about what's […]

I love Autodesk University events in general, but the London edition – which I attended for the first time […]

Happy New Year! I've just come back online after a wonderful (and much-needed) 2-week break. I hope those of you who were lucky enough to get time off at this time of year made the most of it and managed to spend some quality time with your loved ones. (I will admit that since the […]

This week I had the chance to make a long-overdue first visit to Ireland. I flew across to Dublin for meetings with Kingspan, a large building products manufacturer. Brian Glancy, Kingspan's Head of BIM Strategy, had organised a session for the people working with BIM in the various Kingspan companies around the world. It was […]

Yesterday I headed across to Esslingen, a town south-east from Zurich, to meet with a large Swiss customer of ours, Basler & Hofmann. They're an independent engineering, planning and consulting company with 600 employees in 4 countries (although most are based here in Switzerland). One of the reasons for meeting in Esslingen was the chance […]

I've been having a lot of fun working on projects I can't really blog about, this week – on the one hand hacking Refinery to add some new UI features I thought would be interesting to explore, and on the other hand working in Dynamo to make some architectural changes to the Van Wijnen tool […]
