Category : Reference Lines, ellipses,
Description : This tutorial covers how to use reference lines to constrain or drive radial shapes. In the past i have found this to be tricky when using Reference plane but with a reference line it is quite easy. I dont get to much into adding parameters but one could imagine using a length parameter to drive the length of the reference line as well as the ellipse.

Level : Beginner
Description : This video covers the process of exporting DWG files from Revit. We export a DWG file as a solid for Rhino and i explain the process for exporting Meshes.

Category : 3d Modeling, Line Based Families
Description : Although a little jumpy, this tutorial covers using a line based family to make a parametric awning. As the line is drawn longer you get more awning members. It covers using formulas in families as well as nesting one family in another. I’ll probably make this again but for now it should work.

Category : 3d Modeling, Curtain Panels
Description : This tutorial covers how to add angle parameters. In this case we put them in a curtain panel to break from such an orthogonal grid. Here are they a tilted mullions but one could imagine using a curtain system just and a construction grid then using face based families for more complex systems on top of the grid.

Description : In this tutorial I make a simple parametric stool in a generic family. I cover Working with reference planes, parameters and establishing constraints.
Design ReForm is meant to be a source of information for the integration of design and technology. The ambition of Design Reform is to publish tutorials and explorations in parametric modeling with software such as 3ds Max, Revit, Maya, and Rhino.
