## About this course

The workshop aims to provide participants with comprehensive knowledge and practical skills in designing efficient geometries while leveraging data and visualization techniques.

## What you'll learn

- Introduce participants to the principles of parametric design, structural efficiency, and data visualization in the context of architectural and engineering projects.

- Familiarize participants with Karamba3d and its capabilities for structural analysis, optimization, and performance-driven design.

- Develop participants’ skills in Rhino/Grasshopper3d to analyze, optimize, and visualize parametric designs.

- Demonstrate real-world case studies and examples that showcase the integration of parametric design, structural efficiency, and data visualization.

- Experiment, research, and document through iterative hands-on exercises.

- Incentivize collaboration and knowledge transfer among participants through conversations and design feedback.

## Methodology

- Introduction to parametric design and structural design principles in architectural and engineering projects.

- Overview of the Grasshopper3d plugins Karamba3d and eleFront for structural analysis, optimization, and data embedding.

- Parametric modeling strategies for generating structurally efficient geometries.

- Integrating real-time data visualization techniques into the design process to communicate structural performance and design analytics.

- The workshop will be conducted as a combination of presentations, tutorials, and hands-on exercises. Participants will have the opportunity to apply the concepts learned through practical design exercises. Participants will also have opportunities for Q&A sessions, discussions, and design critiques to enhance their understanding and receive feedback.

## Requirements

- No prior knowledge of any software is required for this course. General knowledge of Rhino3D & Grasshopper3D is highly recommended.
