Rethinking Acoustic Guitar Construction Through Digital Fabrication

A digitally native acoustic guitar developed entirely in Rhino 8, combining NURBS modeling, AI-assisted learning, and 3D printing. By replacing the traditional soundhole with a system of internal air channels based on Helmholtz resonance, the project rethinks both acoustic performance and fabrication logic.

“Learn Rhino Python without knowing Python”

A practical introduction to using Python within Rhino and Grasshopper, helping designers gain greater control over complex operations while maintaining the clarity of visual workflows. The book presents a hybrid approach where scripting enhances, rather than replaces, parametric design.

Casa Fratelli: Generative Growth within a Historic Ruin

A parametric liana composed of 1,000 3D-printed elements reclaims a historic ruin in Bucharest, using generative design and custom fabrication workflows to merge light, material, and growth logic.

The Grasshopper Paradox - Tools Agnostic Mind-set

The recording of our Educator’s Lab webinar: The Grasshopper Paradox - Tools Agnostic Mind-Set is now available!

In this session, Dr. Milad Showkatbakhsh, Director of AA EmTech, turns a seemingly contradictory idea on its head: to truly master any tool, you must first be free of attachment to it.

Dr. Showkatbakhsh makes the case that architects are no longer sculptors of form; they are editors of data. He shows how platforms like Grasshopper become truly powerful not when you learn their menus, but when you've already learned to think computationally: breaking complex design challenges into modular, solvable processes the way nature has always done.

If you teach design, practice it, or just wonder where architecture is heading, this is a must-watch.
