Generative Components workshop, March 2006, led by Robert Aish from Bentley

Originally this design was going to be a detached house located on the hill by the ocean in Norway..  unfortunately due to amount of given time, it wasn't finished during the workshop, and now is still in development. 

What is most important though, is that it illustrates some principles of parametric design. Entire curvature of wrapped surface can be changed by manipulating control points and variables, glass and circular structure responds to user input rearranging itself, reacting to geometry changes.
