Description

In this exceptional course, you'll learn how to create automated buildings with one-click parametric input, using powerful tools like Grasshopper and Rhino. This course is aimed at architects, designers and engineers who want to transform their design ideas into advanced, easily editable architectural models.The course begins with a comprehensive introduction to Rhino and the interactive Grasshopper environment, with an emphasis on understanding the user interface and core components. You don't need to know how to use Rhino or Grasshopper, but if you know how to use them, it will save you a lot. sometimes. You will learn how to use parametric inputs to control design and create complex geometric shapes in an automated manner. By building a strong foundation in algorithmic thinking, you will learn how to apply conditions and logic to implement dynamic designs.The course covers various topics, including:Understand the basics and advantages of parametric design.Create and manipulate geometric shapes using Grasshopper components.Develop scripts for automated architectural designs.Use data structures to enhance design processes.Automatically design facades and external building components.Integrating structural and environmental analysis into design processes.By the end of the course, you will have acquired the skills to develop parametric and automated architectural models using Grasshopper and Rhino, enabling you to deliver innovative and effective design solutions with one click. You will be able to create creative and complex designs faster and more accurately, putting you at the forefront of architectural design professionals.
