PARAMETRIC MODULATIONS, Computational Design Workshop
London, 15th–17th January 2020

Level: Basic & Intermediate (Previous parametric design knowledge not obligatory).

Tools: Rhinoceros3D + Grasshopper3D

Agenda
Parametric Design, in the history of architecture, has defined many rules for current designers and for future practitioners to follow. One of the strongest aspects that are prominent from this style is ‘geometry’. Arguably, there is nothing new about geometry and aesthetics forming the most prominent aspect of any style or era.
