Program : Parametric Facade Workshop

Session Overview :

Our aim is to fabricate the foundation of computational and parametric design among the students and young professionals and develope an advanced skill sets by incorporating all the varied domains of computational and paramteric design. The workshop will initiate from the very basics of grasshopper and rhino, so no prerequisite knowledge is required !

At the end of three days training program, a participant will develop the required skills for designing a parametric system of facade and skins using different Panelling and skin development techniques.

No previous knowledge of Grasshopper & Rhino3D required !
