Parametric Design as a Catalyst for Social Innovation is a computational design workshop by Studio Nuru Karim that explores how Grasshopper and Rhinoceros 3D can be used to design resilient, sustainable environments addressing climate change. The course covers parametric design principles, sustainable water harvesting strategies, solar energy integration, and urban agriculture systems. It is taught by Nuru Karim (NUDES), Roberto Arguelles (XenoLab), and Aditya Jain, combining computational design methods with real-world social and environmental applications.
