Ad. Parametric Texture
LIVE Workshop
Learn to create & transfer complex parametric textures for industrial design projects in Grasshopper and Rhinoceros 3D for aesthetical, structural and functional purposes using the NURBS, Mesh, SubD and Voxel workflows.
-Grasshopper experience required. If not, start with the Grasshopper course.
-Grasshopper Knowledge Test.
Additional Information:

Are you an industrial designer and would like to learn complex workflows to create textures for your design projects? Creating Textures manually in Solidworks, Fusion or Alias or similar CAD packages can take a lot of time and unfortunately, the possibilities are very limited to simple 2D textures.
The Ad. Parametric Texture Workshop is designed to help industrial designers learn various parametric design workflows to generate textures using Grasshopper 3D and Rhinoceros in the NURBS, Mesh, SubD and Voxel context. Parametric textures can elevate aesthetical, structural and functional quality of your design.
In the workshop, we also learn how to transfer and blend textures using various continuity criteria (G0, G1 or G2) and implement design for manufacturing standards like draft angle and curvature analysis, injection mold perforation alignment and other tips to transition easily from CAD to the manufacturing phase. We will also learn the intercompatibility between Grasshopper and other CAD packages to generate complex textures by respecting topology and continuity of the geometry.
