Embedding Shape Grammars in a Parametric Design Software
The Garifuna are a group of people that live on the northern coast of Honduras and the coast of Belize. They have a very distinct and vibrant culture.

Abstract Styles in the Vienna Workshop: A Formalist Analysis of Josef Hoffman?s Two Designs
A shape grammar formalism is elaborated for the Vienna Workshop (Wiener Werkstaette) designer Josef Hoffmann?s two designs. Early instances of abstract expressionism are traced in Hoffman?s works by investigating stylistic parallels through shape rules and computations.

You share ideas and experiences and find shortcuts to what is expected of you, rather than the more formal work-based learning and training programmes that teach you what management wants you to know and do.
