Strata Tower Parametric Model Using Generative Components

PROJECT CREDIT »
Asymptote Architecture: Hani Rashid and Lise Anne Couture

David Farnsworth, the structural engineer we’re working with from Arup New York, won the gold prize at this weekend’s Smart Geometry conference by producing a parametric model of the tower I’m designing at Asymptote.  Using Bentley’s Generative Components (beta) he was able to resolve the geometry of the tower’s unique structural system and enable the structure to redistribute itself based on changes to the buildings overall geometry.
