Week 7: Parametric Design

This weeks lecture by Ruwan provided some important demonstrations of software. He showed some of the main 3D modelling applications and proceded to give a demonstration of how the program works and how to create simple but effective models when designing.

These programs varied depending upon the type of contraints given by the design. Some of the programs he showed were Rhino, Grasshopper and 3D Studio Max.

This was very effective to give an understanding of in what situations the modelling program becomes effective. Some programs will not effectively support kinetic type architecture. He suggested that we go away and experiment with some new programs to find alternative solutions to the modelling process.
