NEXUS - grasshopper advanced workshop | 27-29th September

The focus of the workshop is to integrate and correlate the synergistic effect associated with

simultaneous presence of different digital design- and analysis tools in an ongoing design process.

The main attention is set on easy to handle interface , which should be used at a early stage of

conceptual design to respond to external and internal influences in a intelligent and sustainable way.

Participants will use the software Grasshopper as a parametric modeling plug-in for Rhino. The usage

of this graphical algorithm editor tightly integrated with Rhino’s 3-D modeling tools open up the possibility

to construct highly parametrical complex models. To generate this complexity we will use live linkages

to several programs listed below:

• Autodesk Ecotect Analysis and Radiance via GECO
• Processing, Excel or Open Office via gHowl
• FEA software GSA via SSI
