gnuradio-companion is a really cool piece of software. I’d like to
emulate
the style in which blocks are connected together. It is rather
intricately
tied to gnuradio. Does a design document exist that shows the philosophy
of
the internal layout, ie how blocks are connected etc?

I don’t think there’s an architecture document.
But GRC “knows” remarkably little about Gnu Radio, per se. Most of that
knowledge is encapsulated in the various .XML files that describe
blocks semantics, and in particular, the code that needs to be
emitted when one of those blocks is instantiated.
So, conceivably, you could use GRC to layout “blocks” for an entirely
different reason/subsystem–might require bit of tweaking, but
probably
not a complete overhaul.

I had done exactly this for a project that connected VHDL blocks. It
used the same gui and base classes as grc. The link seems to be down
now: http://www.flexhdr.org/projects/flexhdr/wiki
