L'architecture feminin

Another great architect from France: Manuelle Gautrand speaking at the TU about her works and the responsibility as an architect for our society.

I think the best knowen project of her is the showroom for citroen called C42. Located directly at the world famous Champs Elysees they have created a pure space for (nearly) only cars behind a folded glass fassade showing the abstract company logo of citroen.


And of course she showed some of the awesome towers they did. For example the winning entry for a proposal at La Defence, Paris.

Panelling Tool

So this is what I'm doing right now in my spare time after work. As a plug-in for Rhino the Panelling Tool provides a huge range of possibilities in populating components on a surface. You can choose how to subdivide the sufaces and also create, save and edit your own components. Basically it's a much more primitive form of GC but with an embeded script support a really great thing. Check it here.
