Discovered today a new tool introduced into the 2011 version of Autdodesk's REVIT; Adaptive Conceptual massing.
Unfortunate that I didn't discover this tool sooner, it works as to draw lines or curves through points that can be adapted to other splines or points in model.
In basic I could for example, create a series of splines developed via the experimentation with particles fields and extrapolate them into a building form via the adapative point system. I thought this idea wonderous, but discovering it the night before presentations is a little late. However at least the knowledge and theories are there for another time.
Reflecting on this semester of my design major. I believe I have learned a great deal. I have been, previous to this semester been prone to develop form purely from the buildings interiors and functions. This semester of design has allowed me to break away from this and look at otherway design can develop and still be usable and have a human scale through the experimentation of animation software, and the development of relation with site. Though I did unfortunately did not let enough of what I learned bloom in my final proposal (for which I am still kicking myself for) I believe I can move on from this subject more free and able in my ability to design, and more knowledgable in how design can come about.
