OBJECTIVES * Learn the Rhinceros work enviroment * Key 2d drawing comands * Organic shapes using surfaces * Modifying NURBS surfaces TARGETED SKILLS At the end of this training, trainees will be able to build a 3d model of an organic shape, similar to a sea shell. PEDAGOGICAL METHODS Theory - covering all the commands used Exercises - a step by step evolution from basic shapes to the final project. ABOUT RHINOCEROS 3D Rhino is a computer modeling software with an easy to grasp interface and a rapid learning curve. Best used to generate free forms in architecture of industrial design. ABOUT ME This class is inspired from my experience as a guest lecturer at Timisoara Architecture Faculty

OBJECTIVES * Learn the Grasshopper work environment * Interface and basic workflow concepts * Easy to follow grasshopper definition TARGETED SKILLS At the end of this training, trainees will be able to understand the work environment in grasshopper, the logic behind a grasshopper definition and to build a parametric volume. PEDAGOGICAL METHODS Theory - covering all the commands used. Exercises - a step by step evolution of a Grasshopper script from basic commands to a parametric volume. PDF handout with the commands used. ABOUT GRASSHOPPER It is a visual programming software, runs under Rhinoceros 3d as a plugin but requires little experience in Rhinoceros.
