A digital fabrication project with the intention of creating a modular facade that could be 3D printed. Our group created a modular beehive and planter design to help promote pollination as well as create habitats for bee populations in Barcelona, Spain. With the use of Grasshopper, Rhino, and Midjourney, we were able to successfully 3D a prototype of our design at 1/8" = 1'-0" scale.
