algorithmic modeling for Rhino
Space Syntax is a theory of architecture and built environment that seeks to explain the effect of spatial configurations on behavioral patterns of people. SYNTACTIC tools bring Space Syntax theory into parametric design workflows. More information on syntactic design methodology:

The plugin is available for download here: https://genesis-lab.dev/products/syntactic/
This plugin is completely compatible with SpiderWeb for Grasshopper and we hereby thank Richard Schaffranek for all we have learned from this extremely useful plugin.
NEW VERSION WAS RELEASED ON JANUARY 25, 2015.
UPDATE: Genesis Lab [webpage][website] is to modernize, open-source, and develop the toolkit starting in December 2021. Stay tuned for updates through my YouTube Channel and ResearchGate.

Hello everyone,I just discovered space syntax and I am having a great deal of fun playing with it however, I can't seem to bake the pie chart, or the legends or anything. Any ideas how I can export…Continue

Hi There, I'm using the latest version of Syntax (downloaded today) on Rhino 6. Is it correct to assume that this isn't 100% compatible with Gh on R6 at this point?The issue I am having is the first…Continue

HiI used your space syntax for an architectural function relation diagram, but i have a problem because there is a rule that number of points and areas should be the same, so in a situation that i…Continue

Hello...in space syntax analysis by spider web or decodingspace " choice and integration " these tools donot appear on windows 7 or 8 and can be used only in Mac software only , is that right or not ?
Hi dalec, yep, good news is that I have generalized Isovist Bubble 2D to Isovist Bubble 3D; posted an image here: https://sites.google.com/site/pirouznourian/syntactic-design
next stage is making an Agent-Based Model that requires some time, motivation and peace of mind :)
Hey, good to know that he idea of creating a 3D space configuration is still running... I though it was abandoned :);)
Hi Paul Arsene, could you please specify what kind of problem you have with the installation? did you run the installer? did you find the installed folder in your computer? did you drag and drop the GHA onto your GH and make sure it is in your components' folder and that it is unblocked?
Hi Guillermo Varela, I am happy that you've found the tools useful. I am currently having a very intensive schedule finishing my PhD, so I cannot work on tutorials. We have documented the generative process however in two papers. Just beware that this process is still a WIP. Looking at what you've been trying to do, I guess you are trying to plan with a non-planar graph. Please have a look at this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planar_graph
I am not working on rectangular layout anymore. Instead I am working on a much more generic solution using our Isovist bubble2D and Isovist Bubble3D constructs. It will take a while until I make sure we have some stable solution to release. Anyway... if you have a planar graph, i.e. a graph that can be possibly drawn on a piece of paper without its edges crossing each other then the Tutte algorithm and our triangulation and dual graph tools should work; provided that you have enough connections with the NEWS sides. Please use the example file that comes with SYNTACTIC 2.7 and start from tweaking that definition with your inputs. I hope these ideas help.
Hi Pirouz;
Just to let you know that Install doesn't work here either, on windows 7
Regards
Hi Pirouz! Congratulations and thank you for this amazing plugin.
I have been trying to use it for my final work, but I have some problems using the syntactic design tools for generative design to create a pavilion combining parametric design with the spatial patterns of C. Alexander.
I am trying to use SYNTACTIC to make a parametric base plan but I don´t know how to transform the tutte convex drawing in a voronoi or rectangular design.
Could you upload the tutorial of the generative process?
I don´t know how to scale the tuttedrawing to see it ok, because the bubbles aren´t tangents and the dual graph doesn´t works well.
Thanks in advance
Hi all, I need to showcase a few design processes in which the toolkit SYNTACTIC has been used in my PhD dissertation. Of course, I will give full credit and acknowledgements as appropriate. I would be very thankful if you could kindly share your work samples. It is especially interesting to show how the tools are combined with other approaches.
Hi George Agafonov & Alois, excuse me for this late response; have been travelling these days... Are you still experiencing this problem? A pessimist view would relate it to windows 8! If there is anyone who has been using Syntactic on windows 8 please let us know.
If you say everything is up to date and you are sure you've unblocked the GHA in the components folder then I don't know what might be the problem. Could you ask David's opinion on this problem?
