Grasshopper 3d Mastery: Zero to Design Hero in <5 Hours

Are you ready to master Grasshopper – not in months – but in just a few focused hours?

Whether you’re an architecture student, urban designer, or professional with a busy schedule, this course is your shortcut to real-world parametric design mastery. No fluff. No filler. Just hands-on, project-based learning with results you can showcase.

In this course, you’ll build a complete parametric design project — from site modeling to environmental analysis and optimization — using Grasshopper and essential plugins like Ladybug, Galapagos (genetic algorithm), Kangoro, and Elk2.

What You’ll Build:

• A full architectural site with randomized building blocks using Voronoi
• Roads, green areas, and realistic surrounding buildings
• A fully analyzable and optimized design model for commercial buildings and offices

You’ll Learn How To:

• Model adaptive building forms and heights using environmental data
• Import real EPW weather files and analyze sunlight, shadow, and solar radiation
• Simulate wind flow and visualize wind rose diagrams
• Optimize building orientation, visibility, and placement using the Galapagos component
• Model fabric and mesh-based structures using the Kangoro plugin
• Import real-world urban layouts using Elk2 and perform site analysis and pathfinding
• Create powerful visualizations, legends, and presentation-ready graphics

Why This Course?

• Less than 5 hours of fast, efficient training
• Perfect for busy students or professionals
• 100% practical — project-based from start to finish
• No prior experience with Grasshopper required
• Covers essential workflows for architecture, urban design, and environmental planning

By the end of this course, you’ll have:

• A complete parametric project from scratch
• A deep understanding of real-world design workflows
• A strong portfolio piece to present in studios, interviews, or client meetings
• Skills to integrate data-driven design into your work — fast and professionally

Plugins You’ll Work With:

• Ladybug (sun, shadow, wind, and radiation analysis)
• Galapagos (genetic algorithm optimization for solar/view/site)
• Kangoro (fabric/membrane simulation with physics)
• Elk2 (real-world data import from OpenStreetMap)
