INFORM - Parametric Skin Series - Tensile Facade -
Project based tutorial using Rhinoceros3D and Grasshopper3D part of Parametric Skin series.
Parametric Skin tutorials is a series of 9 tutorials, 9 projects and 9 workflows. Tutorials will introduce different methodologies to explore facade digital morphology and new typologies of architectural skins which will be enacted by the medium of computation and parametric design.
This workshop intended for designers, architects, students of Architecture and Urbanism, product designers, artists and everyone who’s interested in computational design techniques. Participants will have the chance to experiment a computational design workflow that will combine the use of different tools such as Rhinoceros, Grasshopper and different plugins. They will enhance their computational design skills.
