(1/2) Rhino.Compute is helping us expand the role of analysis within our practice! One Challenge? How to improve the debugging process for complex scripts running headless...

(2/2) 🤔The answer might involve moving from visual 'scripting' to visual 'programing' and establishing some new principals for script architecture. Love to hear from anyone that's working through this! discourse.mcneel.com/t/grasshopper-…

Pedestrians, cars, and cyclists all beautifully share Fort Street in downtown Auckland, NZ. As one of the public spaces we're interested in, #sharedstreets have much to offer by rethinking how different transit modes occupy the space of the urban street. #urbandesing #visionzero

We have been working to leverage Rhino Compute to optimize KPF's design workflow. In this joint article with IAAC, we discuss various compute workflows and exciting computational efficiency through our first-hand experiences. link.medium.com/vs9oNx5aVmb

How do we be proactive in the pre-design phase? Combined with demographic data, we are creating a package with projected population growth, amenity demand, and trip generation to derive program and mobility recommendations even before design begins. #UrbanAnalytics

In Metropolis Magazine's inaugural Responsible Disruptors Awards, KPFui's mapping tool, Scout, was honored for its real-time visualization abilities. Learn more about the platform and how it "represents change for the better" here: bit.ly/3HWY3hs

KPFui's Brandon Pachuca will present Block Party, an interactive platform for engaging with NYC Community Boards, at the Open Data Week on March 10👏. Check out Block Party here: blockparty.studio kpf.com/current/news/b…

The proposed QNS subway line in Queens would fill the largest gap in the NYC #transit Network - a finding from the latest round of spatial analysis we conducted for the QNS feasibility study. Visit Friends of The QNS to support this NYC public transit initiative!

We recently provided data support for an article with CTBUH. It is interesting how for downtown Brooklyn which feels like it has a lot of tall towers, only a small percentage of buildings are over 10 stories. #tallbuildings #cityscape #OpenData

We leveraged Three.js and @mapbox to visualize daylight impacts to the Brooklyn Botanic Garden, which have expressed concern over several proposed development. The web-accessible tool cites the developments’ height and bulks to support decision-making for stakeholders.

Reorganizing the gradient closet - MTVCribs crew coming over later today!

A hypothetical scenario to think about on a special day... and are you ready for Aot S4 pt2's final episode this week?

Over 210k people live within 1/2 mile of the proposed QNS subway line in Queens. Most of these NYC residents have few transit options - findings from the spatial analysis we conducted for the QNS feasibility study. Visit Friends of The QNS to support this NYC public transit initiative!

Working with the Environmental Performance team at KPF we did a series of daylight simulations across all five boroughs to introduce the performance targets for good public space as part of the MASNYC A Framework for a City Built for Sunlight. Read more: mas.org/news/a-framewo…

What is your favorite urban space? What makes a good place? We are drilling down these questions as we develop our placemaking precedent database for documenting the “ingredients” and refining our design “recipes”. 📷: Julienne Schaer @ Brooklyn Bridge Park Brooklyn Bridge Park
