Brief:

Introduction to Grasshopper Workshop aims at providing the operational tools for visual scripting in Rhinoceros. Its main focus is to introduce data structures and methods specific to computational design.

Assigment:

MSc. 1

Elaborate custom methodology for a computational design problem that incorporates:

Design objective: clearly define design objective in a short paragraph

Design strategy: outline series of geometric steps to be implemented in Gh, that will realize the design objective

Computational Flow Chart: establish logical relations between steps in a clear diagram

Implementation: to be delivered in the form of a standalone Gh script that has no additional plug-ins

MSc. 3

Elaborate custom methodology for a computational design problem that includes feed-back:

Design objective: clearly define design objective in a short paragraph

Design strategy: outline series of geometric steps to be implemented in Gh, that will realize the design objective

Computational Flow Chart: establish logical relations between steps in a clear diagram

Implementation: to be delivered in the form of a standalone Gh script with relevant plug-ins able to create feed-back loops that address the main design objective

Upload all required information on your assignment page until 15th October.

Attractors Example

Design objective: Multi criterial dynamic mapping of complex surface

Design strategy: Define and use geometric constraints – attractors - to dynamically interact with Rhino/Gh defined geometry

Computational Flow Diagram:
