Flux – Your Design Tools Working Together

Proving Ground recently collaborated with the team at Flux to create a tutorial series focused on their new line of tools.  Interoperability is essential for a data-driven workflow and it is very cool to see how Flux is building a technology platform to facilitate this important concept.

Flux’s current interoperability toolkit includes a web interface and plugins for popular design tools.  The data set we created was developed to provide a step-by-step demonstration for how Flux tools can support a process that spans Excel, Grasshopper, Dynamo, and Revit.  They have posted the entire video series for free on the Flux YouTube channel!

Building Data with Excel – The Basics

In the past, I have been quoted as saying that Excel is one of my favorite design tools.  To double down on this claim, I have published new custom video content that highlights basic uses of Excel in the design workflow. Hopefully these videos can provide a good perspective on how this ‘every day tool’ can support the data-driven design process.

The videos cover a range of Excel concepts such as pivot tables and charts.  The tutorials also include the basics of using Dynamo with Excel for direct data interoperability with Revit.  Take them for a spin on the Proving Ground YouTube channel!
