Rhino User Webinar: Computational Modelling of Existing Tunnels

 

Rhino User Webinar
Computational Modelling of Existing Tunnels
January 28, 2026 - 4:00 PM (CET) 

In this webinar Mattia Bressanelli, R&D Lead at TECNESYSTRA Advanced Tunneling, will showcase computational modelling of existing tunnels that have challenging geometries using custom-built Grasshopper components. This demonstrates the power of Rhino and Grasshopper as a development platform for the linear infrastructures sector.

About the speaker:
Mattia Bressanelli is a building engineer focused on computational design and software development. He studied at Politecnico di Milano, began his career in the building energy and sustainability industry, working with dynamic modeling and CFD, then switched to the highway infrastructure industry, in the R&D department, first for a highway managing company, then for TECNESYSTRA Advanced Tunneling. The company was established in 2022, with the aim of creating a highly specialized tunneling hub capable of developing state-of-the-art technical solutions for the infrastructure sector.

food4Rhino webinar: Raven - Unlock Grasshopper with AI (January 22, 2026, at 5 PM CET)

food4Rhino webinar: Raven - Unlock Grasshopper with AI
January 22, 2026, at 5 PM CET

Transform your computational design workflow — from beginner to power user

Grasshopper is powerful, but let's face it: it's not always fast or easy. Raven changes that.

Raven is a conversational AI built natively for Grasshopper and Rhino that works directly with your scripts, plugins, and custom tools. Write definitions from text prompts, debug in real time, and tap into 928+ community plugins instantly. Whether you're facing Grasshopper's steep learning curve or you're a seasoned pro looking to iterate faster, Raven puts your focus back where it belongs: on designing.

In this webinar, you'll discover how to:

- Generate parametric geometry from simple text and image prompts

- Debug and refine your scripts with an AI that actually understands your setup

- Leverage any plugin in your environment — from Ladybug to your custom in-house tools

- Apply Raven across AEC, engineering, and manufacturing workflows

Join the Rhino team as we discuss the core principles that make Raven the most effective CAD-AI system available today, and show you exactly how to supercharge your own work.

Speaker: Moritz Rietschel is co-founder of Raven, building human-centered AI tools for design and creativity. His work builds on research at UC Berkeley exploring human–AI collaboration in CAD with Prof. Kyle Steinfeld and robotic fabrication with Prof. Simon Schleicher. Moritz has lectured internationally on AI-based creative tools, hosted workshops at MIT and Tongji, and contributed research on LLMs for CAD in peer reviewed publications.

Emergent Futures V1.0 Webinar by DesignMorphine

Emergent Futures V1.0 - Free Webinar
January 31st and February 1, 2026 - 3 PM to 7 PM UTC

Emergent Futures V1.0 explores how generative AI reshapes architectural design, addressing why and how to use AI tools to create concept-driven 3D scenes with Rhino, Blender, and ComfyUI. The workshop proposes that today’s AI, 3D modeling, and scripting techniques empower architects to design not just buildings, but complex systems rich in relationships, narratives, and detail, elements often lost to deadlines and constraints. We’ll examine how mastering tools enables freedom in solving design problems. To test this, we’ll develop a concept with AI and transform it into a 3D environment, treating AI as a co-author, or even the author of the project’s core ideas. While this may sound dystopian, we’ll approach it playfully. Participants will generate AI imagery of architecture, landscapes, characters, and objects within one cohesive concept, then model, texture, and light the scene for rendering. By combining a deep exploration of current tools with rapid creative workflows, we’ll simulate advanced studio practices, focusing on conceptual creation rather than full architectural plans, and conclude by materializing our ideas as a unified 3D scene.

Modulation Evolution V1.0 Webinar by DesignMorphine

Modulation Evolution V1.0 - Free Webinar

February 08, 2026 - Sunday (3pm to 7pm UTC)

Modulation Evolution V1.0 explores how modular design can evolve into a generative, multidisciplinary methodology using Rhino and Grasshopper. Rather than treating design as a static result, the session frames it as a systemic and evolutionary process in which geometry, logic, and creativity interact within a living design ecosystem. Participants will examine how bottom-up processes can generate spatial systems, structural coherence, and aesthetic identity across scales, from product design to architecture. The session introduces patterns as the DNA of design, showing how they carry both the rational and poetic dimensions of creation. Through discussions on computational design logic, cross-disciplinary collaboration, and digital fabrication, the talk demonstrates how complexity can emerge through gradual adaptation rather than sudden invention. Ultimately, this webinar invites participants to rethink design as an ongoing act of evolution: an interplay between form, structure, and thought in which geometry becomes a bridge linking disciplines, scales, and cultures.
