BEFORE YOU SCROLL: 

These sections of my website serve as a collection of knowledge that I have gathered through ongoing research in my everyday life. Through exploration of articles, researching companies' initiatives, listening to podcasts, and keeping up to date on recent news, I strive to delve deeper into the realm of the built environment.

 

I am motivated by a personal mission to continuously expand my understanding and I am committed to unearthing fresh insights and broadening my knowledge on architecture-related topics.

In this case I aim to expand my knowledge in Parametric Desgin

Anchor 1

During my Fondazione Prada Project there was an opportunity for my team and I to utalise a more parametric approach to our design. However, due to the brief’s requirement - “the project should seek maximum financial sustainability,” a parametric style and design would not be feasible. However after my course, my interest in parametric design grew therefore i decided to begin to learn grasshopper. Below are some of my initial works using the Grasshopper Plug-in.

Initial works with Grasshopper

Exploring Grimshaw's Parametric Eden Project structure using Grasshopper

I first attempted to understand the shape of the structure in the pods. Once I realised they were hexagonal shapes, I began to make it in Grasshopper.
