Parametric Furniture Design with Grasshopper and Rhino workshop by DesignMorphine - January 27-29, Skopje (Republic of Macedonia)

Parametric Furniture Design with Grasshopper and Rhino workshop
January 27-29, 2017
from 9:30 to 18:00
SEEU Skopje Campus, South East European University
Skopje (Republic of Macedonia)

Parametric Furniture Design with Grasshopper and Rhino is an intense course combining algorithmic methods for 3D modeling with digital fabrication of furniture. The purpose is to produce furniture using parametric design with geometries that allow materialization.

The course will go through the processes of constructing a shape algorithm, customization, 3D printing and fabrication. Parametric modeling tools in Rhinoceros and Grasshopper will be introduced, so participants can create and visualize unique custom designs. For this purpose, 3D printers will be available on the site for all experimental needs. Participants will have the opportunity to get their designs manufactured and learn about all aspects of the fabrication process. In the end, participants will have their prototypes 3D printed.

What you will learn

  • Intro to Grasshopper, creation and customization of various shapes through parametric modeling
  • 3D printing prototypes
  • Visualization with KeyShot
