  • SmartGeometry 2010: Conference Registration is NOW OPEN

  • SG2010 Workshop Applications NOW OPEN!

    The SmartGeometry Group
    is pleased to announce that Workshop Applications to the
    SmartGeometry 2010 Workshop and Conference in Barcelona
    are now open.

    The annual Workshop and Conference will take place in Barcelona 19th – 24th March 2010. The event will be the key event in the year for discussing, learning and networking about the emerging practice of digital parametrics within the AEC community.

    The event will come in three parts, a Workshop (19th-22th March), a public Shop Talk (23rd March), and a public Symposium and Reception (24th March). These events follow the highly successful previous SG events in San Francisco 2009, Munich 2008, New York 2007, Cambridge/London, UK 2006 and multiple preceding events.

  • Open Platform Day 2 - Evening Presentations

    The second evening of presentations for the Open Platform event might have been subtitled "designing with constraints". Quite by chance, all of the presenters focused on the issue of constraints in parametric and computational design, each from a very different perspective.
  • Open Platform Day 2

    Participants in the trainings and workshop have been getting increasingly sophisticated in their studies. In the Grasshopper training students explored creating a repeating knot pattern on a freeform surface, as shown here in work by Giulio Castorina.
    The Open Workshop has students working on varied problems. Peter Liebsch has been working on scripting random traversal of a surface by line segments, and has focused during day 2 on collision detection.
  • Open Platform Workshop: Day 1

    The Open Platform workshop had a fantastic first day. All the workshops were full and participants were eagerly working away. Interesting explorations are underway across the trainings and workshops, with participants exploring constraint-generated models (responding to environmental, structural and fabrication concerns), mathematical surfaces and constructions, and creating interfaces for collaboration between design disciplines. The evening presentations in the grand Oosterre room featured presenters from TU Delft, Buro Happold, and Form Foundation.
