## About this course

This workshop teaches parametric design using Grasshopper to innovate architectural design through advanced scripting and geometry.

## What you'll learn

- Exploration of Geometry: Delve into the profound relationship between geometry and architecture, aiming to uncover new dimensions in design through parametric modeling.

- Parametric Design Introduction: Learn fundamental principles and applications of parametric design using Grasshopper, focusing on innovative thinking in architecture.

- Hands-On Scripting: Gain skills to build and modify scripts from scratch, mastering the key functionalities of Grasshopper for dynamic architectural designs.

- Conceptual Freedom: Discover how parametric design allows for multiple outcomes, fostering creativity and reimagining traditional architectural practices.

- Comprehensive Understanding: Leave the workshop with a firm grasp of integrating parametric design into your project workflow, enhancing your overall design approach.

## Methodology

The course’s main objective is to introduce participants to the world of parametric design using Grasshopper. We will build/model scripts from scratch, review the software’s fundamentals, and create a workflow based on design methodologies around parametric scripting.


The goal of the two-day workshop is for participants to leave with a strong understanding of how the software works and how it can be implemented into any project's design process.

Introduce Parametric Design: Teach fundamental principles and applications of parametric design using Grasshopper software. Master Grasshopper Basics: This workshop will equip participants with the skills to build and modify scripts from scratch, reviewing the software's key functionalities. Enhance Scripting Techniques: Advance participants' scripting abilities for more complex and dynamic architectural designs. Apply Conceptual Design Freedom: Explore how parametric design can lead to multiple design outcomes and innovate traditional architectural practices.
