Happy Mondays!

We have some exciting news to share with you today!✨

This weekend, we will host a workshop titled 'Polyhedral Topologies in Blender.' During the workshop, we will use Blender software and Geometry Nodes in conjunction with the Tissue add-on. This will allow us to combine the flexibility of procedural nodes with non-destructive Tissue tools such as Polyhedral Wireframe and Tessellation.

We are excited to announce the “AI Creative Challenge 4.0”, a global event that brings architects and designers together to push the boundaries of AI-driven design in architecture. The challenge is to harness the capabilities of these AI tools to quickly ideate, visualize, and create conceptually impressive architectural designs. Highlighting the importance of human prompting and imagination.

Have a great week!
