Hi, I’m David Copete.
Do you want to learn parametric design with Grasshopper? Every week I share tutorials, scripts, and resources to help architects, students, and designers get started—or pick up new tips and tricks to enhance their workflow.
My goal with these videos is to show you my process and workflow using Grasshopper, and how this powerful tool connects to architecture, engineering, and digital fabrication.
If you ever have questions, feel free to reach out—I’d be happy to help you along your parametric journey.

In this video, I walk through key concepts, tips, and practical strategies to help you truly understand how to create this shading system in Grasshopper. Many of the most powerful parametric workflows come from understanding why a component behaves the way it does, not simply replicating a final result. By taking the time to experiment and explore, you build intuition, gain flexibility, and unlock far more creative freedom within the program.

In this video I share a lot of tips and tricks to understand how to use the component isotrim in grasshopper. the most of the powerful workflows in parametric design come from knowing why things work, not just copying the result. When you keep on experimenting, you unlock so much freedom and creativity using this program.

Learn how to harness the power of parametric design by mastering point attractors in Grasshopper. Understanding this concept is essential if you want to use Grasshopper effectively, it’s a foundation you’ll rely on for all future parametric projects. In this tutorial, you’ll learn how point attractors influence geometry and how to apply these techniques to create responsive, dynamic designs.
If you don’t want to watch the entire tutorial, you can download the script to see how everything connects — it’ll be available until the next video is posted.
