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.This course takes you on a step-by-step journey into parametric modelling. Starting from the basics, you’ll learn how to break down complex forms into manageable components and transform them into dynamic geometries. Through hands-on lessons, you’ll master the logic of Grasshopper, explore advanced modelling techniques, and simulate the dome’s striking interplay of light and shadow.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.
