Houdini is a powerful software that allows users to create highly intricate models quickly, which has recently led to a growing interest among architects. The Course is aimed at beginners and intermediate users.The two-day workshop serves as an initiation into Houdini’s intricate yet captivating realm, where participants learn to create complex workflows and fit them into an architectural context. The main goal is to familiarize each participant with the user interface, learn basic and advanced techniques, and understand how to work efficiently within the software.

  • 01

    Introduction to Houdini: This workshop is designed for beginners and intermediate users, providing a comprehensive introduction to Houdini's powerful capabilities in architectural modeling.

  • 02

    Hands-On Experience: Participants will gain practical experience in node-based procedural modeling, exploring a wide range of geometry and surface features within Houdini.

  • 03

    Transformative Techniques: The course focuses on transforming simple shapes into complex spatial structures, emphasizing procedural techniques to enhance basic geometries and add architectural details.

  • 04

    Workflow Planning: Students will learn the importance of careful planning in both project development and workflow design, understanding how to integrate different approaches into their modeling processes.

  • 05

    Finalizing and Rendering: The workshop will conclude with techniques for finalizing and cleaning geometries for rendering in other software, enabling participants to apply their new skills effectively.

How the 2 days are spent, session by session.

Day 1 Program

Saturday · Sep 9, 2023

  • Lecture – Generative Design – approx. 1 hour
  • Session-00 – Introduction to SideFX Houdini
  • Session-01 – Setting up the System
  • Assignment

Day 2 Program

Sunday · Sep 10, 2023

  • Session-02 – Finalizing the System
  • Session-03 – Export/Render Options
  • Q&A And Recap
  • Project-oriented discussion and reviews

The course offers participants the chance to gain hands-on experience and an understanding of node-based procedural modeling with Houdini. An introduction to a wide range of geometry and surface-based features within the software will be provided. In the end, finalizing and cleaning the created geometries will be shown to prepare to bring them in other software to render. Participants can work individually or in groups on the assignment.

The focus of this course is to give students the ability to transform simple shapes into more intricate spatial structures, such as vertical highrise or horizontal buildings. Using procedural techniques, you will explore ways to decompose and enhance basic geometries and add architectural details. We will also highlight the differences between traditional and procedural modeling approaches.

Students will see how different approaches can be inserted into the workflow for specific tasks and how much control they can have over the entire design process. Through different procedural techniques, they will have the opportunity to see ways to create geometries with numerous variations.

In the end, participants will be able to create procedural applications and models that they can use in many different ways and for various tasks. The most important knowledge students will take with them is that not only the project but also the workflow itself to get to the project needs careful planning/designing.

5.0instructor rating4courses

As an architect, speculative artist and computational designer from Austria, Mümün Keser places himself in the bridge between real and virtual and tries to intertwine these two opposing areas. He is known for his interests in data-driven design techniques and experimental spatial investigations. His most recent works contain various series of architectural designs that are mainly concerned with bringing media into architectural expression and the search for contradictory processes that lead not only to a design outcome, but also to particular experiences. He received his master’s degree from the University of Innsbruck and is currently under contract as a research assistant and lecturer at the Institute for Experimental Architecture and Building Construction under Prof. Marjan Colletti and Prof. Karolin Schmidbaur. In addition, he works as a freelance designer, educator and artist. He held workshops for numerous people in various fields for many different organisations and universities such as University of Innsbruck, IAAC Barcelona, UCL Bartlett London and Futurly. Furthermore he had the opportunity to exhibit his works in major cities like New York City, Berlin, Miami, Vienna, Istanbul, and Tokyo.

Very intersting workshop, showing the potential of procedural modelling in Houdini. I would have liked also to see a brief rendering workflow in order to create inspiring images like the ones in the preview of the workshop.

There are extremely few resources on Houdini in architecture. This was the best one so far.
