Services

Artificial Natures works with architects and designers to craft custom software that fits their needs, process and vision. If you're a designer working with computers and you have an idea for a tool that could help you work more creatively or efficiently, we can help you realize it. If you need something that's not on this list, just let us know.

Interactive 3D Visualizations

Artificial Natures can create beautiful visualizations of your designs that your clients or the public can view right in their web browsers. Much more than just fly-through animations, these environments are immersive and interactive like video games. Your clients can pick up objects, change the lighting and configure options. Anything from a single object, to a house, to an entire city can be visualized and shared around the world.

3D Design Software

Artificial Natures can build digital tools to improve a variety of design processes:

• Visualizing an array of design options
• Creating forms based on complex natural processes like weathering, biological growth, molecular bonding or group dynamics
• Collaboratively annotating and discussing 3D models with a remote team
• Streamlining fabrication processes for creating models and mock-ups
• Online design games for collaborating with clients

Artificial Natures uses a variety of technologies to create custom software. We will adapt to the technological environment of your office to ensure compatibility and ease of use. A few of the technologies we work with:

• Scripting and plug-ins for major 3D modeling applications like Rhino, Maya, Sketchup and others
• Parametric modeling in Grasshopper, as well as creating custom parametric applications
• Stand alone 3D design software for Windows and Mac
• Web-based 3D design software
• 3D design tools for iPhone, iPad, Android, Gaming consoles and more

Workshops

We teach workshops on a variety of topics, including:

• Parametric modeling in Grasshopper
• Introduction to programming for designers
• Web design and development for designers
• Social media workshops
• Custom workshops on any technology topic
