Review Phase 回顾阶段2: GH and Parametric Design

[break]

This phase began with a basic tutorial on Grasshopper (GH), including training of its essential components. Unlike traditional design, parametric design is, by nature, based on algorithmic processes; this approach to design is made possible by GH. After we learned the fundamental tools and workflow of GH, we continued with modeling exercises based on several world-renowned architectural projects. Finally, we concluded Phase 2 with an exploration of the software’s essential concepts in order to fully understand its mechanism.[br]
这个阶段从Grasshopper (GH) 的基本教程开始，包括基本命令的练习与运用。不同于传统设计，参数化设计是从自然中来，根据算法逻辑通过GH来实现。了解了GH的基本工具和工作流程，我们对世界知名建筑进行建模练习。第二阶段是通过软件的基本概念以充分了解其工作机制。

Student Work

A gallery of student work submitted after tutorials of all levels of Parametric modeling in GH.

The modeling skills/topics of focus included: automation of typical Rhino modeling process in GH, list type (flatten and graft), staircasing, morphing, component and proliferation, geodesic, data manipulation, fast façade generation (GH Plugins Lunch Box and Weaverbird), and simple implementation of voronoi and field system. Those were taught through facade and form modeling of a combination of our custom projects and world-renowned design projects. A strong emphasis was put to explaining that multiple approaches can exist at the same time on GH algorithmic modeling and tutors showed students its best practice among multiple approaches. [br]建模技能/主题主要包括：典型犀牛建模过程通过GH自动生成，list type (flatten and graft)，staircasing, morphing, component and proliferation, geodesic, data manipulation，快速立面生成（GH插件Lunch Box和Weaverbird），voronoi和field系统的简单实现。这些命令通过我们做过的项目和世界知名项目的外立面和形式造型来学习。需要强调的是GH的算法建模可以同时存在多种方法，导师会给学生展示最佳方法。

Phase Details

Lecture 04 “Parametric Modeling / Design”

Lecturer 讲师: Chie Fuyuki 冬木千枝; Assistant 助教: Margaret Kamal 甘佩佩; Interpreter 翻译: Yiran Liu 刘一然

The phase 2 was preceded by the lecture “Parametric Modeling and Design” given by the director and principal tutor of this workshop Chie Fuyuki. The choice of content was carefully made to deepen students understanding of the topic; definition of “parametric design”, comparison of contemporary design paradigms, a quick history through an introduction of Antonio Gauidi’s work.[br]

进入第二段之前，workshop的主讲及导师冬木千枝作给学员们介绍关于“参数化建模与设计”。为了加深学生对主题的理解来选择内容；“参数化设计”的定义，当代设计模式的比较，高迪作品的介绍。

The lecturer Chie started with articulation of what “parametric design” is by introducing difference in disputed terms around computer-driven designs.

The lecture was not only one way. A couple of fundamental questions were thrown to students: What do you know about parametric design and how do you think about it? What would you expect to learn from this course?

A student Bubu replying to the question. Luckily enough, there were many students with high motivation in the class.

A brief introduction of form-finding in architectural design history was introduced by Margaret Kamal.

“The use of parametric equations can be seen in many aspects of Gaudí’s architecture and is perhaps best illustrated by his use of the hanging chain model.” explained Margaret.

p2s05 Parametric Modeling Basic & Intermediate

Tutor 教师: Chie Fuyuki 冬木千枝; Assistant Tutors 助教: Yiran Liu 刘一然, Xiangyu Guo 郭翔裕, Shun Zhao 赵舜

GH modeling tutorial and exercise to regenerate samples of known design projects and their details that require basic parametric skills. Examples include interior/furniture rib structure, relatively simple building skin details, and pavilion modeling.[br]GH建模教程与练习，应用基本参数技巧辅以建筑项目案例和细节包括室内/家具肋骨结构，简单的建筑表皮细节，pavillion设计。

Xiangyu’s tutorial of Santiago Calatrava Ysios Winery. The focus was the list data manipulation with a combination of “Dispatch” and “Weave” components.

A tutorial of Gradient Partition with Sine by Shun and Yiran. Through this example, students learnt an intermediate level of GH list usage with handy “Graph Mapper” components.
