In this Grasshopper Tutorial, I will teach you how to use the twist command in Rhino 6. I will explain how twist works with a simple twisting Box around a parametric Axis
In this video tutorial, I will explain how you can produce a metaball by a set of point and charges. First we will define the points and then by using the Metaball(t) Custom tool we will give charge to these points and then we will define…
In this grasshopper tutorial, I will talk about the Import PDB tool and how you can use it to visualize a protein file. First, we download the PDB file from the www.rcsb.org website. After that, you can import the PDB file in grasshopper and use the atom data to visualize the protein.
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 video tutorial, I will use three different plugins (Weaverbird, Cocoon, and Kangaroo) which will take your modeling to a whole new level! First, we will model our solid mesh with Cocoon and then we will refine the mesh with Kangaroo and at the end, we use weaverbird to give our mesh some power.
In this Laser Cut Earring Design tutorial, I will show you how to make a parametric model for Rhombus Earrings. First, we will model the base polygon and make it parametric by using evaluate curve and then we will define the sections and offset the boundaries to make the final model.
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, we are going to model the Islamic Art Museum at Louvre. First, we are going to model a parametric NURBS surface by dividing the edges of the rectangle and moving the point up to make the edge curves. Then we are going to use Lunchbox to make the panels and Spaceframe structure.
This Grasshopper Attractor tutorial is about you how you can use a point attractor to produce a smooth mesh with Weaverbird, First I will divide the surface into segments and then by converting the NURBS surface to mesh and by using Weaverbird I will produce the bumps.
In this Grasshopper tutorial we will use the Box Morph tool to morph a 3d module from the xy plane into a surface. By using the box morph technique you can design any complicated module and then morph with into your desired NURBS surface.
In this Rhino Grasshopper Tutorial, we will use the Delaunay Mesh component to model different smooth meshes. First, we will define random points and connect them bt Delaunay mesh and then by using the Weaverbird plugin, we will smooth the final result.
In this Parametric Furniture tutorial, I will teach you how you can model a parametric chair in Grasshopper by defining two polylines. First, we will draw the polylines and then by modeling the base surface and by using the contour tool, we will make the curves.
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 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 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.
In this collaborative video with Kinetic Architecture, I teach how you can model the contour table with another method
In this grasshopper tutorial, we will model a parametric pattern by using Hexagons to produce stars. First, we will study the pattern and how it can be modeled parametrically and then we will make the hexagon grid, extract the corners and put the polygon on the points to make the pattern. We will also study a way of grouping the cells and extract the boundaries.
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.
In this grasshopper tutorial I will talk about the Scale NU tool and how you can use it to scale a set of rectangles non uniformly. First we will array a square and then define a rotated plane to scale the squares diagonally. We will use point attractors to define the weight of scale.
In this grasshopper tutorial, I will explain about the Graph Mapper tool and how you can implement it in your design. First, we will learn how the Range tool can make data for Graph mapper and then we will use the graph mapper to change the distribution.
In this video tutorial, I will show you how you can use the Voronoi3d tool and how you can use it to produce Voronoi cells on a 3d NURBS model. You can easily produce 3d voronoi cells in grasshopper with the Voronoi3d tool and random distributed points.
In this video tutorial, I will model the confluence park in grasshopper. First I will explain the geometrical constraints of the base polygon of the structure and then I will make it parametric. Then we will work till we finish the surface.
