Converting a Dynamo Player Graph to Work with Generative Design

Introduction In a previous post, we discussed how to Convert an Existing Dynamo Graph to Work With Dynamo Player. This involved modifying nodes to be used as inputs and creating output (results), for user feedback. In this post, we will expand on this workflow further, by converting that same Dynamo graph to work with Generative Design. With Revit

Dynamo Player Introduction – Converting an Existing Graph for Use in Dynamo Player

Introduction Dynamo player has been around for quite a while and has changed a bit over time. Initially introduced in Revit 2017, Dynamo player didn't have the ability to modify inputs of your Dynamo graphs. Fast forward to today, and Dynamo player is better than ever. Not only has its visual appearance changed (thanks to ongoing development with

Informing A/V Layout with Generative Design

Summary MEP and various MEP subdisciplines are often overlooked when it comes to sample Generative Design workflows. For MEP layouts, there are actually quite a few examples of laying out diffusers, sizing equipment, and other various tasks. Previously, we discussed some of those great examples in the "Getting Ready for MEP workflows" blogpost her

Telling a Story with Generative Design Outcomes (Part 2)

This is a follow-up post to a previous post, Telling a Story with Generative Design Outcomes. Summary In our previous post, we demonstrated a way to export outcomes from Generative Design for further visualization. This feature offers a lot of great flexibility for visualizing results. In that example, we created outcomes with randomization. This

Optimizing Room Tag Placement with Generative Design, DynaShape and VASA

Summary Generally speaking, when working with Generative Design we have a tendency to focus on the design phase. This is partially due to the fact that there are a lot of opportunities for optimization and optioneering at this phase of a project. However, when it comes to a project timeline, quite a bit of time is spent on the less exciting por
