Part of Guangzhou Design Week, the International Design Expo (Dec. 4 – 8, 2009) is one of the most influential comprehensive design exhibition in China. Since 2006, exhibition area has added up to 70.000 sq meters, boasting more than 100,000 professional visitors from design institutions as well as brands at home and aboard.

Int’l Design Expo 2009 covers a wide range of fields including architecture and landscape design, interior design, industrial design and graphic design. It plays the roles as an information center for sharing worldwide cutting-edge design trends and biz platform for designers and branding enterprises, leads trends life style, improving brands images to win the market opportunity.

The Guangzhou Design Week is endorsed & promoted worldwide by three of the top design organizations, such as International Council of Societies of Industrial Design (ICSID), International Council of Graphic Design Associations (ICOGRADA), and International Federation of Interior Architects/Designers (IFI).

From the Press: DEVELOP3D at the solidThinking Product Day

DEVELOP3D recently covered solidThinking 8.0 and solidThinking 8.0 Inspired with two articles which followed the recent solidThinking Product Day in Ludwigsburg, Germany.


About solidThinking
There’s been a debate raging on a recent post… with a reader questioning why you would want a history tree when working with complex surface forms. In short, seeing solidThinking in action answers those questions. By maintaining a fully featured history, by linking the seemingly simple curve forms you use to create surfaces, then the maintaining an intelligent history of the edits that you make (such as moving control points, pushing and pulling geometry), you have a toolset that’s perfectly linked for creating multiple design iterations, new concepts and new models in a very short space of time.”
“…concepts, ideas and forms… can be created, played with and worked in a fraction of the time you’d take to do it in a general purpose modelling systems. And the reason you can do that is because you’re using an intelligent modelling system tuned for the process, rather than a generic surface modelling tool.”

About solidThinking Inspired
“What solidThinking Inspired is about is giving the design community a new tool that, while it’s based on robust proven technology (as used by the likes of Airbus for optimising wing spans or leading architects, SOM, for designing high-rise buildings) its delivered in a manner that enables its use for creativity, rather than simulation. This is a tool that’s intended for finding new design alternatives, for providing, as the name suggests, inspiration, when working on new products. By bringing this type of technology, removing the complexity, but retaining the robustness, designers have the ability to research new structures for any given performance requirement and experiment further. solidThinking, a maker of 3-D design software, thinks it has hit on something big by borrowing a page from nature. The latest release of its software has something called a morphogenesis tool, which amounts to a filter designers can use to tweak their projects. The filter stems from research done around algorithms that try to mimic how human bones grow and support weight.”
