Description
Discover the power of parametric design by recreating one of the world’s most iconic architectural masterpieces – Jean Nouvel’s Louvre Abu Dhabi. Known for its breathtaking dome and the poetic “Rain of Light” effect, this building is a perfect case study to unlock the creative potential of Grasshopper.

But the course goes beyond technical skills. By reconstructing the Louvre Abu Dhabi, you’ll gain a deeper appreciation for how digital tools can be used to analyse, reimagine, and innovate within architecture. You’ll see how parametric workflows not only help solve complex design problems but also open new doors for creativity.

Whether you are an architecture student eager to expand your design toolkit, a professional looking to sharpen your computational skills, or simply a design enthusiast fascinated by landmark buildings, this course is designed for you. No prior expertise is required – just curiosity and a willingness to experiment.

By the end of the course, you won’t just have recreated an architectural icon. You’ll have developed the skills, confidence, and inspiration to bring your own complex ideas to life through Grasshopper and parametric design.

Who this course is for:
– Architecture students at all levels & architecture professionals seeking to refine their Rhino skills
– Architecture students at all levels & architecture professionals seeking to refine their Rhino skills
