Parametric assistance for complex urban planning processes
In the following we present examples of new parametric urban design techniques that are applied for large-scale urban developments in order to achieve three goals: inclusiveness and transparency; automatization and speed; flexibility and...
Computational Urban Design Prototyping
The presented study is made for Cape Town city in South Africa, in which approximately 7.5 million people living in informal settlements and about 2.5 million housing units are needed. This motivates us to...
Grasshopper snippets for Urban Design and Analysis
Together with the chair of Computational Architecture at the Bauhaus-University Weimar we have developed a few Grasshopper snippets for the course Computational Urban Analysis. To make them accessible to a wider audience, we share them...
Urban Simulation with Grasshopper for Rhino3D
Dynamic urban development simulation models are usually separate to urban planning tools making it difficult to test the consequences of urban planning variants directly without switching between expert tools. This paper presents an approach to...
