Studio Mode was commissioned by Populous in New York City to design a custom parametric model and digital environment for the schematic and design development phases of a futbol stadium in Monterrey, Mexico.

The project required the ability to achieve iterative development of the stadium’s overall form, skin, and associated surface geometry, including material break-lines and “gilled” apertures. The model was generated using associative logics related to main driver geometry based in a 1:1 metric and utilized the extension of the chosen parametric design platform, Grasshopper, through custom built and scripted nodes.
