Parametric design for architects and engineers
During this course you will learn how parametric design helps you easily design complex structures.
Principles and possibilities of parametric design
Parametric design helps you design structures that can be easily modified, even in the later stages of the design process. Parametric design is an intuitive way for you to automate your own work.
You can use project specific data to automate your design process and workflow, perform calculations, and optimize your solutions. The possibilities with parametric design are ever increasing, and it has already been widely adopted throughout the engineering sector.
In this course you will be introduced hands-on to the software, Grasshopper3D, and you will become familiar with the overall software landscape surrounding parametric design, gaining practical experience on how to accelerate design and engineering tasks using state-of-the-art tools.
