For Module 2, I completed three computational design exercises using Dynamo, Rhino, and Revit. These projects helped me better understand how parametric modeling can be used to create geometry through rules, relationships, and adjustable inputs.
1. Walk in the Park
For this exercise, I used Dynamo to generate the model geometry through a parametric workflow. I built the form by connecting inputs, points, and geometry operations so the model could update based on changing parameters. This helped me understand how Dynamo can create flexible geometry without modeling each element manually.
2. Eliminate the Echo
In this project, I created the geometry in Rhino using a rule-based approach. I started with simple shapes and used repeated operations to organize and modify them into the final form. This exercise showed how parametric logic can be used to create variation and repetition in a controlled way.
3. Happy Facade
For Happy Facade, I used Dynamo to generate the façade logic and drive the final result in Revit. My approach was to control the wall geometry through point placement, attractor-based relationships, and parameter changes instead of editing each part manually. This helped me understand how Dynamo can be used together with Revit to create a more dynamic and adjustable façade system.
Reflection
Overall, these three assignments helped me better understand how computational design tools can create flexible and adjustable models. Even though each project used a different workflow, all three showed how geometry can be driven by logic rather than only by manual modeling.
