Another great tool taught by the book, from the man himself. I always knew that this channel became better with time. This is education almost given for free. We can't thank you enough for this. You help architects get familiarized with "orbital mechanics" without the hassle of the mathematics. I use this as a constant reference to my set of skills. Grasshopper is way too powerful. The tool must be a standard in the industry.
Today is the first day I bump into your content, and as an architect / cg enthusiast it feels like “I was blind but now I see”… Things that seemed strange and complex are becoming accessible. Thank You. 🙏🏻
hello, thanks for this great tutorial; i just inverted the simulation and i have a great results (context is the buildings and geo is my project) and i tested 3 months (15sep/9am-5pm, 15nov/9am-5pm, 15dec/9am-5pm),the new shape of the buildings allows the sun's rays to pass through for these 03 winter months
Idk how I missed this upload. I tried to figure this out when trying to decided on a thesis topic and couldn't make it work so I changed topics lol. That was over 4 years ago though
I never thought to rays as curves, congrats! Whatever I'm making a research with ladybug/honeybee/dragonfly and envimet. It would be nice if you can make some videos about simulations!
Hmm besides this one - everything else that I do with sun is quite "hand made". When it comes down to light, you can't generalize design too much or else the building will start looking very... hmm.. synthetic.
@@DesignGoBrr My interest stems from ancient structures that are aligned to the sun. I think carving volumes with more sophisticated sun data has a spiritual value.
@@DesignGoBrr I think a simpler version could be done using the shadow line tracking you showed here. An example from history would be the temple of Ramses II at abu simbel. The sun lights up the statues at the back twice a year. I think we need to move beyond the technical aspects of light in order to add more meaning to our work lest our buildings become cold engineering based grasshopper scripts.
Hello Gediminas. I really like your explanations and I have learned a lot from you. I would like to ask you a question. I have seen that it always works in millimeters. Is there any practical reason for doing this? Since their projects are houses and apparently it would be easier to work in meters. Thank you very much for your work. Big hug from Portugal
When I model houses, I only start with large forms, eventually I drop down to much smaller scale - window frame cross section is 40x75mm for instance. That is where I spend a much bigger amount of time - so if I had everything in meters - every time I model out something out of MDF - I'd need to insert 0.018 as thickness instead of 18mm. In architecture school it's a bit different - 90% of time is spent on the concept and moving large shapes around, so it makes sense to stay in meters.
@@DesignGoBrr Thank you very much. ok I understand, you works more on a scale of detail. It makes sense, I thought there was some specific reason in the program. Example: make it easier to scale the intensity of lights or materials. Once again, thank you so much for your work.
Hi Gediminas! Great tutorial as usual. I have a problem when grafting the data. The solid difference won't work with multiple vectors for each curve. Do you have any idea about it?
Hi I am an arkitekt from gothenburg and I have worked with grasshopper in arkitekture for a few years and I really though this idea of carving out the geometry was a really smart idea! You probably figured it out btw but the reason you do not get any colours in arctic view is because the defult setting for arctic view is no material view. You can manually change that however if you go into view propertys. I have also been wanting to start a chanel and do some educational content regarding architecture, grasshopper and work flow between differant programs, however it have feelt really difficult to get started. I have done video tuturials before and I really like teaching. But still it just feels like a up hill battle and I often do not feel confident in the material I have. Do you have any tips on were to start? I am afraid that I do a bunch of videos and no one ever watch them and it would just feel redundant. Sorry for the rant. Great job on your videos are awesome!
Hi there, cool to see people from Sweden tuning in as well. I actually am working with Gothenburg municipality on the Frihamnen project, so I visit Gothenburg from time to time (how can you people live there with so much rain.?...) As for starting a new channel - a few tips: 1. Your videos will be garbage at the beginning and no one is going to watch them, unless you have a charisma of a Greek god. You need to accept that and focus on growing. 2. Mimic what successful youtubers are doing, analyze how they edit their videos and so on. Learn from that. 3. You need to be ready to put down 1 full year of focus/work to get a chance at growing the channel. If you can't do that - you can still try, but your chances at building up an audience will be much much smaller. 4. Don't listen to me - I've just crossed a 20k subscriber threshold. A "medium" sized channel is considered >200k , so this is still a microscopic channel from which you shouldn't take any suggestions on growth.
Hey, I have a question! The Solid Difference is not working on my model.. I see the vector blocks cutting through my extruded curve and everything is connected, but somehow i dont't see the same result... Do you have an idea what I missed out? Otherwise - Thank you for this helpful video :)

Welcome aboard! Happy to hear that stuff that I produce is helpful :)

Oh that's pretty cool!
Ciao Redouane, im working on a project with a similar goal: do you mind sharing the script? I would love to check how you made it work. Thank you
Love your videos, finally some tutorials where gh is applied to architecture and not only to modeling.
but... it's fun to just use grasshopper to make pretty but useless stuff :D
@@DesignGoBrr yes but I'm trying to make a living out of it ^^' I love to model useless stuff but I can't find people wanting to pay for it ahah
Idk how I missed this upload. I tried to figure this out when trying to decided on a thesis topic and couldn't make it work so I changed topics lol. That was over 4 years ago though
Welp, this didn't exist 4 years ago~
I really love your tutorials. Informative and useful as always. Keep on going !)
Thanks! Happy to hear that :)
Very cool! Thanks a lot from Moscow!
Glad you liked it! Greetings to Moscow!

It's going to take a bit of time, but I do have a few advanced simulation tutorials that I'm planning to do
Bro, thank you so much for this video!!!
Best patreon sub I've ever had - cheers bro! Hope to meet you in person around Lund someday!
Yo, thanks for the support! :) And yea - if you'll see me (not running and not having headphones in) - come by, say hi :)
Great content! Very useful indeed.
Glad to hear that!
This is great. I would love to see more sun based form generation

@@virtualcircle285 yea, that sounds cool. And also very very hard to automate

Hello Gediminas, could you make a video about display settings in rhino?
I did, it's right here: ruclips.net/video/CKs7LCEO8Wg/видео.html
@@DesignGoBrr Thank you so much. Greetings from Turkey.
Hi, I'm an architecture student from India, I'm doing my thesis, is there any possibilities of discussion with you
Unfortunately no - I simply don't have enough time. Too many things are happening all at once
what the componant do vs the sold difrance
Removes one shape (closed polysurface) from another
@@DesignGoBrr I cant do it😒
