Grasshopper
Grasshopper is a visual programming language that's perfect for architects and designers. It allows you to create parametric models based on mathematical algorithms. Parametric modeling is quite different from traditional 2D drafting or 3D modeling. The shape's characteristics follow specific rules and can be easily adjusted using Grasshopper's parameters.

Lessons
We will explore popular areas where and why Grasshopper is used. Key topics include:
– Waffle Texture Grasshopper: Ideal for plywood furniture, art objects, and cardboard furniture
– Skins: Various textures where arrays of geometric shapes change their form
– Creating a Mural: Based on a photograph using the image sampler tool
– Form Generation: Using the Kangaroo physics engine
What We’ll Model:
– Shoe sole tread
– Parametric bench
– 3D animal figure made from intersecting cardboard sheets (waffle structures)
– Mural based on a photograph
– Ceiling surface using Kangaroo for HoReCa
– Shape using the Voronoi algorithm for pastry chefs
– Parametric texture ring (jewelry)
