In this Grasshopper tutorial, you’ll learn how to create a parametric form by defining a base polygon and converting it into an n-gon, quad, or triangular mesh. You’ll then extract the floor levels and turn the mesh edges into structural frames and window openings.

Description
The major challenge for Parametric modeling is that expressing design intentions with parameters and explicit functions requires a different way of thinking than most designers are accustomed to. Learning to think parametrically is a hard-won skill, not acquired with ease. Although learning to design parametrically can be difficult, the logical precision can also be enjoyable for designers who like how parametric modeling forces them to explicitly state every geometric relationship.
At Parametric House we are developing a complete Learn & Design System called the “Grasshopper Course“. In this course, we are offering Designers and Architects a complete series of tutorials and Digital Fabrication techniques which will take their design skills to a whole new level!
