Free Spherene workshop at Footwearise 2024 Barcelona (Dec 4-5)


As part of the Footwearise 2024 Barcelona conference there are a series of workshops, including:

Free Spherene workshop
December 4, 19:00 -20:00 & December 5, 16:00 - 18:00


online or on location (Footwearology Lab and McNeel Europe)

Spherene is an API and a plugin for Grasshopper that helps to minimize material and maximize strength. It allows designers to create optimal material properties for a variety of 3D printing methods, whilst minimizing the need for supports and speeding up your CAD workflow.

In this free workshop you will learn what Spherene can do and how to apply it to footwear through two use cases taught by expert teachers: René Medel (Senior Digital Creation Engineer at Framas) and Jesus Marini Parissi (Computational Design Engineer at Moon Rabbit Adaptive Lab).

This workshop is stream lived online, but if you are in Barcelona for Footwearise then you can join in person. The first part of the workshop takes place at our Footwearology lab and the second part at the European HQ of McNeel, the company behind Rhino and Grasshopper.

The Spherene workshop is meant for design professionals with at least a basic to intermediate knowledge of Grasshopper.

Program:
  • Wednesday, December 4, 19:00 - 20:00
- Introduction to Spherene by Daniel Bachmann and Ralph Baertschi
  • Thursday, December 5, 16:00 - 18:00
- 30 minutes demo of SubD Modeling for footwear parts by René Medel
- 1 hour practical workflow to apply ADMS in footwear geometry by Daniel Bachmann
- 30 minutes footwear parts analysis with Intact Solutions in Grasshopper by Jesus Jesus Marini Parissi.
