DIGITAL PARAMETRICS Rhino3D + Grasshopper

The 4 days intensive course is aimed for professionals and students involved in architecture, design and fashion, who are interested in gaining parametric competency to push their design skills to the next level.

This Parametric Design course will provide the participants with the necessary knowledge and ability to use Grasshopper, a free visual programming plugin in Rhinoceros; you will be guided through a series of hands-on exercises that highlight NURBS modeling and its concepts. We will introduce Grasshopper as a graphical algorithm editor tightly integrated with Rhino’s 3D modeling tools. You will also learn how Rhino is used to render models for visualization, translate 3D models for prototyping, and export 3D models into 2D CAD or graphics programs.

English is the course main language.
