Generative Jewelry Design with Grasshopper class (Nov. 2-3)

This 2 day class will give you a functional understanding of Grasshopper concepts and parametric design.

Learn and explore how Grasshopper generates unprecedented fluidity and automated tasks to go further the design process, allowing for much greater speed with working on complicated and repeating forms. Grasshopper creates parametric modeling to automate production, new forms, shapes, patterns and your own interfaces. It is only possible with the algorithmic modeling.

No knowledge of programming or scripting required, but still allows designers to build form generators from the simple to the awe-inspiring designs. Class covers List management and introduce Date Trees.

We will work on jewelry projects (not all) however design professionals from all industries can be benefited from the class.
Basic Rhino knowledge is required.
