Parametric, Generative & AI Design with Grasshopper 3D

What is Parametric Design? What are its origins, definitions, principles, capabilities, and tools? What possibilities do I have with Grasshopper 3D? How can I program simple and/or sophisticated algorithms to solve problems? How can I generate geometries and iterations with Grasshopper? How can I create exploded views, document, quantify, and visualize my iterations? How can I leverage my algorithms by including generative components? How can I leverage Artificial Intelligence (AI) to generate Grasshopper algorithms? These and more are some of the questions I'll answer in this full guide to Grasshopper.Grasshopper 3D is a programming language created by David Ruttern at Robert McNeel & Associates and released as a plug-in for Rhinoceros 3D in 2008. It is part of the flow-based programming (FBP) paradigm and is a visual programming language that enables the generation of algorithms in an intuitive and practical way, making it possible to visualize results in real time, one of the reasons why it has become popular among designers, architects, engineers and related fields. In addition to being an intuitive and easy-to-use tool, the creative possibilities and solutions it offers are virtually unlimited, and these possibilities can be further expanded through plugins, add-ons and external tools that give Grasshopper an infinite number of applications.Welcome!
