Del Rio Skate Garden: Where Skateboarding Meets Ecology
The Del Rio Skate Garden in Texas is the world’s first municipal skate garden, merging flowing concrete terrain with native desert ecology. Designed and built by skateECOSYSTEMS using Rhino 8, it redefines the skatepark as both civic artwork and living landscape.
3DCITYGH: A Parametric Workflow for Digital Urban Survey and City Information Modeling
3DCITYGH presents a modular parametric workflow for generating structured City Information Models from survey data and point clouds, enabling efficient urban-scale modeling for risk assessment, heritage documentation, and structural analysis. Developed within Grasshopper, the approach combines AI-assisted segmentation, custom semantic structuring, and BIM/FEM interoperability.
Resonant Landscapes: Architecture in Tune with Sound and Place
In Resonance, architect Diana Fox transforms Antwerp’s Theatreplein into a public soundscape where architecture acts as both stage and instrument. The project explores how spatial form, acoustic tools, and nature converge to create a living theatre district.
“Exploring Climate-Driven Design”
Climate Driven Design I is an essential resource for architects, engineers, and sustainability professionals aiming to master net-zero building design. Authored by Christoph Reinhart, a leading expert in sustainable architecture and building science, the book provides a comprehensive framework for understanding atmospheric and thermal conditions in and around buildings.
Architecture Students Fabricate Sculptural Benches at the University of Houston
