great news, a set of BIM plugins is beeing developed and available in beta for rhino 5(beta).
from press release from Virtual Build Technologies:
“…Rhino is very similar to CATIA V4 with its Explicit, NURBS based modeler. It is light in its data base, easy to learn, easy to use and very cost effective in comparison to all the others. Rhino has been discovered by architects over the past few years for these very reasons. The architectural community has discovered its strengths on their own and now more than 100,000 licenses of Rhino have been purchased for architecture. (link to I want my Bilbao – Shop Architects use Rhino pdfs)”
let architecture grow:-)
quite an amazing grasshopper setup for this skyscraper, by LAVA architects:
aricle here. the idea is basically to hide ugly architecture under a new package, instead of tearing it down. this would be more ecological, and save resources ad money.
