For all SIGRADI 2024 conference participants, the organization is glad to announce a free workshop at McNeel Europe office:
"Bio-Parametric 3D Printed Lamps"
Barcelona, Nov 11-12, 2024
Participants will delve into the intricacies of enhancing collaborative design processes by integrating light and pattern analysis into the initial stages of design.
The workshop leverages the power of generative design to create lamp designs that reflect the performance of nature through bio-parametric design. Our primary objective is to equip participants with the essential knowledge and skills required to foster a collaborative work environment using Rhino3d and Grasshopper.
Methodology: The workshop will place a strong emphasis on effective teamwork, enabling participants to work simultaneously on 3D sketch models, facilitated by the seamless integration of 3D printing models using Grasshopper parameters. We will explore the associative exploration of complex geometries and morphological iterations, designing with the lights and shadows of the final projects.
Expected Results: This is a 100% practical workshop. By the end, participants will have created physical, customized, and parameterized lamps that reflect the performance of nature, utilizing advanced 3D printing methods. Additionally, participants will gain the ability to generate a variety of lamp "families" with distinct yet related designs, demonstrating the flexibility and power of bio-parametric design in real-world applications.
