Grasshopper 3D is the most common, parametric modelling, software in the automotive industry. In this Grasshopper Essentials course, participants will achieve impressive results in no time and experience the power of a parametric modelling tool, with vivid and clear examples. As we explore 3D structures and fading textures, patterns applied to Skins and Grills, we will cover essential theoretical logic to visual scripting and understanding what is a parametric workflow.

Grasshopper is a gigantic playground with many things just waiting to be explored. The course is open to all, designers, modelers, engineers, and artists (who meet the minimum requirements).
