FREE FORM and algorithmic BIM modeling with RHINOCEROS 3D + VISUAL ARQ + GRASSHOPPER 3D (for architect-designers)

Target group

The course is intended for architect-designers, leading designers.

Experts can be from the following types of organizations:

  • Small and medium enterprises
  • Small mid-cap companies
  • Public sector organizations for their non-economic activities

Description

The course provides best practices for an integrated BIM workflow with Rhino software and its VisualArq and Grasshopper plugins, as well as collaboration with other platforms. Rhino is the world’s leading software for modeling complex geometry in architecture. Its plug-ins for modeling in a BIM environment (VisualArq) and for creating generative and parametric design through algorithms (Grasshopper) are extremely useful tools for any architectural practice.

Minimum educational requirements for participation in the training

Minimum educational level – higher education in Architecture.
Professional experience using Rhino is not required.


60 hours

The course can be conducted over 14 days for 4 hours plus 4 hours for the exam. The timetable will be specified for each specific course.
The course can be held on-site in the EDIH training hall.
