In this metaball Grasshopper tutorial, I will teach you how you can produce a freeform column model that merge together and form a metaball. First, we will produce the point charges and then based on a profile curve we will produce the metaball curves.
What is Grasshopper3d? With our Rhino Grasshopper Tutorials, you can learn Grasshopper faster and easier! Learning to think parametrically is a hard-won skill, we will help you!
In this Rhino Grasshopper Tutorial, I will model an Islamic Geometric pattern and make it parametric by defining moving lines and making a polar array from the main Unit. First, we will study the pattern and how we can make it as easy as possible and then we will start modeling it in Grasshopper.
In this Ladybug Grasshopper tutorial, I will show you the basics. First I will show you how to install Ladybug and run the components. Then I will explain the energy plus weather files (EPW) and how they give us the most important information about temperature, humidity and wind.
In this video tutorial, I will explain how to use image sampler to produce a complex form based on an image in grasshopper. The image sampler tool will use u,v point mapping to extract the brightness and we can use it to manipulate geometry.
If you are new and want to get started with the tutorials you can watch this introduction video to learn about the tips and tricks you can use to make the Grasshopper Canvas easier to work with! you can also download the Bifocals plugin to see the component name on the top and learn easier!
In this Grasshopper tutorial, I will talk about the Voronoi cell component and how you can combine it with weaverbird to produce smooth mesh. First, we will talk about the center point and the neighbors and then by defining the bounding box, you can produce the Voronoi cell.
In this grasshopper tutorial, I will model an Islamic star pattern and show you how you can make it parametric! First, we will use the polygons in contact method to mode the grid and then we make the patterns.
In this Rhino Grasshopper tutorial, I will model something similar to the ONE Teahouse / MINAX Architects. First, we will define a box and a sphere. Then we will scale NU the sphere so we can control the shape. If we divide the surface of the scaled Sphere into points, Project these points on to the Box and connect them we will have a series of parametric lines which we can finally turn them into a box.
In this Rhino Grasshopper Tutorial, we are going to model a Parametric Reuleaux Triangle and make a pattern by dividing the edges, connecting the points based on relative paths and produce a new pattern by changing the polygon, division number & other parameters which define the geometry.
In this Parametric Design Video, I’m going to explain the Voronoi DIagram based on a project located in Mexico which uses the Voronoi cells in the facade Design. First We will study the facade and how it’s fabricated and then we will remodel something similar in Grasshopper.
In this Rhino tutorial, I will explain the Eve Explode Plugin and how you can use it to move objects based on a point in Rhino. This plugin works on Rhino 5 so be sure to download the Plugin and Rhino 5 from the link below
In this video tutorial, I will explain how to use Rotate Axis tool to produce a linear kinetic origami surface. We will simply model a plane surface and use rotate axis to form the origami structure. then we will use a simple method to open and close the origami.
In this grasshopper tutorial, I will use the closest points tool to produce a tree-like structure. first of all, I will make a freeform surface and divide it into panels and then we will produce parametric points for the location of the columns.
In this video tutorial I will explain how you can use Pipe variable and isotrim to produce a parametric surface. First we will use the pipe variable tool to produce a pipe which its radius changes at different locations and then we…
In this video tutorial, I will show how you can use sine or cosine tool to produce parametric curves in grasshopper. First we will do a bit of research about the sine curve and then we will use the combination of sine and cosine to produce advanced curves.
In thisPufferfish Grasshopper tutorial, we will use the Tween Surface tool to produce a series of surfaces which morph from one surface to another. First, we will use the point attractor technique to produce the deformation on the plane surface and then we will use the pufferfish plugin to produce the tween surfaces.
In this tutorial, I will explain how you can model a series of boxes with different heights based on a point attractor and then morph a module in them. This tutorial will help you cover a surface with a desired 3d module.
In this video tutorial, I will explain how to use Contour component in Grasshopper to produce a parametric facade. We will use rhino to model the opening and deformation and finally use contour to produce the curves and sections.
In this Grasshopper tutorial, I will model the Carnaval chair. First I will explain the curves and how we can model them with NURBS curves. Then I will go for the sections to actually model the chair. We will also model the wires at the end.
In this Video tutorial, I will explain how you can use the Bend Deform component in grasshopper. You can easily bend geometry with this tool. First we will use a simple Arc SED tool to produce the arc and then we will bend a box with the Bend Deform tool.
In this Laser cut design video, I have made a definition to produce a parametric pattern for laser cutting. First I will explain the inputs and how you can change them to change the base pattern and in the end, you can give thickness to your design.
In this video tutorial, I will show how you can use “random” to produce random numbers and use them in your modeling. We will use random numbers for extruding a set of panels in their normal direction and learn how to change the random numbers.
In this Rhino Grasshopper Tutorial, we will model a Parametric Ring. First, we will model the base curve based on Polar points and then give it a rectangular section and finish the model with a sweep1.
