Segnalo il blog di Zhang Yan, architetto presso lo studio gmp a Shanghai - China.
Interessante il progetto impostato con grasshopper per lo "shanghai aquatic sports center" visibile in questi due post:

John Lura blog

Blog dello studente John Lura della University of Houston's College of Architecture dove, in collaborazione con Alex Lahti, ha sviluppato un interessante progetto tramite grasshopper.
Il relativo post è:
Helio-Responsive Surface Manipluation in cui mette anche a disposizione il file di definizione

Britt Bell Design

Leggo via Dezeen del blog di questa studentessa della Victoria University School of Design i cui progetti mi hanno decisamente impressionato.

The Geometry of Bending

"When you bend a thin strip of plywood you get an elastic and beautiful curve. What geometry does this curve follow? Is the curve different for different materials? Can the curve be calculated if you know the length of the material and the anchor points? Is it possible to calculate more complex situations with several forces in different directions? Can you make similar calculations in 3d? Can this geometry be useful in design/production?"
Interessante blog dell'architetto Mårten Nettelbladt di cui segnalo anche il sito.
