RhinoFabStudio

Parametric Design + Optimization + Digital Fabrication

RhinoFabStudio

Objectives:
Teach, learn and share different methods of fabrication for industrial designers, architects, and engineers where Rhinoceros is involved in any cycle of the manufacturing process.
This RhinoFabStudio community is a great place for sharing information about hardware used to fabricate your ideas, your digital models and your Grasshopper definitions.
RhinoFabStudio is open to everyone and welcomes any Rhinoceros compatible program that helps you accomplish your ideas.
RhinoFabStudio urges all Rhino ARTs and ARTCs to post your events, workshops and classes which pertain to fabrication methods and/or processes.

Marquise H.V: Parametric Canopy and Digital Fabrication in Teresina

A fully parametric canopy composed of 210 unique glass panels showcases how computational design and digital fabrication can be successfully implemented beyond major urban centers.

VITRO-P: Generative Design for Customizable Vascular Networks in Optical Tissue Phantoms

A generative design workflow built in Rhino and Grasshopper is redefining how vascular systems can be simulated, fabricated, and studied. VITRO-P introduces a flexible, fabrication-agnostic approach to creating customizable tissue phantoms with embedded vasculature, bridging computational design and biomedical research.

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.

Ant AI - a context-aware AI assistant for Grasshopper


Ant AI is a context-aware AI assistant that lives directly on your Grasshopper canvas. 

Unlike standard chatbots, Ant "sees" your work. By selecting components as context, you can interact with an LLM that understands your specific data structures, component connections, and design intent without ever leaving the Rhino/Grasshopper environment.

Born from a concept at the AEC Tech Hackathon in London, Ant has evolved into a professional-grade tool designed to remove the friction between a designer’s idea and a functional parametric definition.

Transform Your Workflow with Three Powerful Modes

Ant features a seamless chat interface with three primary modes and specialized commands to handle the "heavy lifting" of computational design:
  • Ask Mode:
    • Understand Logic: Inherited a complex script? Select a group of components and get an instant algorithmic breakdown.
    • Debug & Plan: Ask for advice on how to solve a geometric problem or find out why a specific definition isn't working.
    • Explain: Receive a step-by-step logic overview of any selected part of your definition.

  • Edit Mode:
    • Natural Language Building: Use simple text prompts to generate native Grasshopper components and wire them together automatically.
    • Modify on the Fly: Tell Ant to "add a slider to control the radius" or "divide this surface into panels," and watch the definition update instantly.

  • Script Mode:
    • Zero-Friction Coding: Generate Python or C# code directly within script components.
    • Auto-Context: Ant automatically reads your component’s input names, data types, and structures (Item vs. List Access). You no longer need to spend 10 minutes explaining your data tree to a separate chatbot.
    • Instant Execution: Write the prompt, and Ant injects the compiled code directly into the editor.
Key Features:
  • Context-Awareness: Select any part of your canvas to provide the AI with the specific context it needs for accurate responses.
  • Integrated UI: A modern, dockable chat window that supports both Light and Dark modes.
  • Native Output: Generates real Grasshopper components and wires, not just text-based instructions.
  • Multi-Language Scripting: Full support for C# and Python.
  • Iterative Design: Use the chat history to refine and evolve your definitions through conversation.
