Participants will have two day basic seminar, then in another two day ADVANCED seminar of learning how to model complex NURBS models, to create parametric definitions generating practical objects. This intensive workshop covers most of the functionality of Rhinoceros and Grasshopper, as will expose some methods for working with plugins to both programs. Issues such as BIM modeling in Rhinoceros, visualization, import / export of a geometry, real project tasks and others will be explained.
