That's it - everything else will be taught step by step!
Description
Are you ready to master Grasshopper - not in months - but in just a few focused hours?Whether you're an architecture student, urban designer, or professional with a busy schedule, this course is your shortcut to real-world parametric design mastery. No fluff. No filler. Just hands-on, project-based learning with results you can showcase.In this course, you'll build a complete parametric design project - from site modeling to environmental analysis and optimization - using Grasshopper and essential plugins like Ladybug, Galapagos (genetic algorithm), Kangoro, and Elk2. What You'll Build:A full architectural site with randomized building blocks using VoronoiRoads, green areas, and realistic surrounding buildingsA fully analyzable and optimized design model for commercial buildings and offices You'll Learn How To:Model adaptive building forms and heights using environmental dataImport real EPW weather files and analyze sunlight, shadow, and solar radiationSimulate wind flow and visualize wind rose diagramsOptimize building orientation, visibility, and placement using the Galapagos componentModel fabric and mesh-based structures using the Kangoro pluginImport real-world urban layouts using Elk2 and perform site analysis and pathfindingCreate powerful visualizations, legends, and presentation-ready graphics Why This Course?Less than 5 hours of fast, efficient trainingPerfect for busy students or professionals100% practical - project-based from start to finishNo prior experience with Grasshopper requiredCovers essential workflows for architecture, urban design, and environmental planningBy the end of this course, you'll have:A complete parametric project from scratchA deep understanding of real-world design workflowsA strong portfolio piece to present in studios, interviews, or client meetingsSkills to integrate data-driven design into your work - fast and professionally Plugins You'll Work With:Ladybug (sun, shadow, wind, and radiation analysis)Galapagos (genetic algorithm optimization for solar/view/site)Kangoro (fabric/membrane simulation with physics)Elk2 (real-world data import from OpenStreetMap) Ready to Design Smarter, Not Harder?Don't waste weeks figuring it out alone.Join now - and go from zero to professional in less than 5 hours.Let's build something amazing - together.
