Grasshopper is a visual programming language and environment that pairs with Rhino 3D, a software program also developed by Robert McNeel & Associates. Grasshopper allows users to build algorithms by dragging and connecting components on a digital canvas. From parametric modeling and fabrication, lighting performance analysis, to building energy consumption, Grasshopper provides an intuitive way to explore design without requiring programming experience.

Rhinoceros 3D is a 3D computer graphics and computer-aided design application software developed by the American company Robert McNeel & Associates. Utilizing NURBS mathematical modeling to produce precise representations of free-form, curving surfaces, Rhino is used in industries such as architecture, industrial design, automotive design, product design, and multimedia and graphic design.

Founded by Moritz Mungenast, Oliver Tessin and Luc Morroni in 2018, 3F Studio stands for fused form and function. The German-based studio specialises in 3D-printed performative architecture and future-oriented design.

3F Studio is a spin-off from the research project Fluid Morphology at the Technical University of Munich’s Department of Architecture, and offers its expertise in computational design and additive manufacturing (3D printing) for the development of function-integrated facade applications and novel concepts for interior and furniture design. This encompasses the use of new, recyclable materials to create sustainable solutions for overcoming the future challenges faced by the building industry.

3F Studio believes in the performative and aesthetic qualities of innovative technologies such as additive manufacturing to develop novel applications with a distinctive design vocabulary.

The Barclays Center is large venue seating up to 19,000 guests. IrisVR allowed the team to explore and engage design and iterate options early in the project process. 

"Assembly OSM" company helped with the manufacturing process. As published on FastCompany "Assembly is a new company that is streamlining the development of high-rise apartment buildings to be as efficient as building an airplane. By breaking down building designs into a series of components that get manufactured and assembled together, they say the time it takes to construct a building can be cut in half, making it faster and easier to meet the need for urban housing in cities around the world."

Assembly operates like a supply chain, sharing a project’s requirements with manufacturers that build the parts that are then combined into the completed building. With a network of more than 30 partners, including manufacturers of steel, fully contained bathroom pods, mechanical systems, and facade panels, Assembly’s digital platform can send out the specifications of a building’s design to be manufactured section by section.

Fologram’s software provides designers with a toolkit to create mixed reality experiences within design software they already use, and view and share these experiences through the Fologram app running on mobile phones or Microsoft's mixed reality headsets the Hololens.  Fologram’s clients include leading universities, multinational architectural firms, industrial designers, engineers and artists who using Fologram to create mixed reality applications for full scale construction, public art, architectural fabrication, sculpture, automotive design and visualisation.

Fologram is a software ecosystem that allows Mixed Reality hardware running our standalone application to talk to desktop design software running the Fologram plugin. Geometry and other model information from your design software is streamed to your headset or mobile phone, and spatial information like device or hand positions are sent back in real time. By using this spatial information to trigger changes in design models, designers can use Fologram to build interactive mixed reality experiences. 

A feature rich free mobile version is avaible at https://fologram.com/download, and a 14 day trial for Hololens users.
