In the below video, we cover how to install the Rhino plugin, show you how to connect a Forma project with a Rhino file, and sync the changes between the software. You will learn how to select the layers, functions, and geometry that you want to sync and see how to check the area metrics for the objects that you designed in your Rhino model.
The Rhino add-in allows for direct synchronization of geometry from Rhino to Forma. Once you are in Forma, you can then utilize our environmental impact analyses to understand the impact of factors on your design. Forma’s powerful analyses provide insights on noise, sun hours, daylight potential, solar energy, wind, embodied carbon, and microclimate, empowering you to take decisions that are backed by the most granular data.
Furthermore, you can add additional context by bringing your Forma terrain and surrounding building data back into Rhino. This integration improves your pre-design and schematic design workflow, saving you valuable time.
Making the right decisions in the planning phase has never been easier!
