René Medel’s work offers a view of how Rhino workflows in footwear have expanded from modeling lasts and soles to generating internal structures and designing production tooling. Light Tube Foam Sole brings those methods together in a 3D-printed mold developed at framas.
A 50 m² ceramic lattice for Hotel Thompson Sevilla uses Rhino and Grasshopper to connect image-based geometry mapping, custom G-code generation, clay 3D printing, and a carefully coordinated on-site assembly process.
What if clay 3D printing could move beyond stacked layers? Mark Meier’s experimental rotary-axis process combines Rhino, Grasshopper, Python, and robotic fabrication to draw continuous ceramic patterns directly onto rotating 3D forms, creating remarkably light and intricate structures.
Solander 38 is a self-sufficient, solar-electric cruising catamaran developed through an unusually collaborative design and build process. At its center, an evolving Rhino model became a common language between designers, builders, fabrication workflows, construction drawings; and eventually an interactive digital record of the vessel itself.
See how to generate 3D terrain from contours and points, reshape topography, create grading operations for platforms, paths and roads, control slopes and elevations, and calculate cut-and-fill volumes directly from the model with this free RhinoLands webinar.
Rhino World is the official international event dedicated to the Rhino and Grasshopper ecosystem. Three days of talks, demos, and conversations that will bring together the global Rhino community — McNeel staff from every region, industry experts, third-party developers, and computational designers, all in one place.
This webinar is designed for all professionals involved in topography modeling and terrain operation calculations, including architects, civil engineers, landscape architects, and others.
