Central Bank of Iraq is a challenging project developed in BIM. Landscape elements embedded or in contact with the curved geometry of the building required unique details and high precision. Elements such as green roofs and pools were elaborated and further optimized in cooperation with architects, engineers, facade team, and related sub-consultants. The process required high-level use of algorithmic tools such as Dynamo and Grasshopper+Python.
