Grasshopper Level 2+ Training - Live Online Course
Join Simply Rhino's experienced Grasshopper3D trainers to continue your Grasshopper journey, following our Grasshopper Level 1 course, with our live online and certified Grasshopper Level 2+ course.
The aim of this course is to provide you with an in-depth understanding of Grasshopper3D and two of its main plug-ins, Kangaroo and Weaverbird, giving you a full grasp of parametric modelling, form finding, mesh and SubD manipulation. Throughout the 7-week course, we will look at the underlying logic behind Grasshopper, including its complex data tree structure, irregular surface paneling, mesh modelling, genetic algorithm and SubD/remeshing.
Grasshopper Plug-ins, Kangaroo and Weaverbird
We will also look at physics simulation and optimisation through Kangaroo, including planarization, form-finding and bending forces to reproduce material behaviour within the parametric model and create construction-aware geometry. We will look at mesh subdivision with Weaverbird to model tree-like structures. We will also show you how to develop your own set of tools through user objects.
Meet Your Grasshopper Trainers - Arthur Mamou-Mani + Fun Yuen
Arthur is an architect and the director of the award-winning architecture practice Mamou-Mani, specialising in a new kind of digitally designed and fabricated architecture.
Fun is an architectural designer at Mamou-Mani Ltd., her work incorporates research, parametric design, and fabrication management.
Grasshopper Course Outcome - Inspired and Ready to Create!
Although the class is based on a pre-defined schedule, each class is always different depending on the audience and requests happening throughout. We will make sure that the class matches your expectations and ambitions with the software. Most importantly, we want you to leave the class inspired and ready to use and create with the software at all stages of design.
Course Target Audience - Parametric Improvers
The class is aimed at people who have already undertaken our Grasshopper Level 1 Course or who use Grasshopper in their work on a daily basis. It is also preferable to have an intermediate level in Rhinoceros. Although Grasshopper is mostly used for design, the class is about parametric thinking and workflow and therefore is not addressed at a specific profession. Over the past several years of delivering Grasshopper Level 2 we have had architects, engineers, industrial designers, jewellery designers, contractors, project managers and artists attending the class.
Amazing course would do it again and would definitely do a level 3 followup course with Arthur and Fun if it was available. The best thing about this course was that the tutors were asking us to do exercises along with them so it felt like an actual learning experience where you have to try to figure stuff out before we solve the problem together and all of that is happening in real time. I can't think of any better way to structure these lessons as the choice of exercises seemed to be optimized for learning. The pace was good, not slow bur there was always room for questions. Best value for money, totally worth as it was way better than learning from youtube and I can employ the skills in my own project now.
