How to Rhino

This month's workshop inside of How to Rhino Premium Group is
🎯 Computing Things

The workshop will be led by Omar Kaddourah, senior designer at Zaha Hadid Architects with extensive experience in computational design and urban architecture. Through his professional journey, he has contributed to significant projects including the 1.2 million square meter Unicorn Island Master Plan in China, where he specialized in faΓ§ade model design and rationalization.

As a computational design expert at BIG (Bjarke Ingels Group), he was instrumental in developing a comprehensive algorithmic toolkit comprising over 30 tools for urban design applications. This technology suite addresses various aspects of urban planning, from massing generation to complex road network analysis.

πŸ“„ Workshop Description:
This workshop focuses on using computers to create complex 3D designs, particularly for building facades (the outer walls). It highlights the power of "parametric modeling" software, like Grasshopper, which lets you automate design steps and easily update your models. This approach can be great for efficiency and handling changes. However, the workshop also acknowledges the value of manual modeling, which can be simpler and more adaptable for some designers. The workshop will help participants understand advanced techniques that combine these approaches.

Over two days (plus an optional third topic), you will get hands-on experience. First, you'll learn how to create foldable rib structures on curved surfaces using computer-aided geometry processing. Then, you'll explore how to divide up faΓ§ade panels into a pattern and group them based on their shape and location, and then give them materials and colors in Rhino.

We're also going to delve into generating a more intricate pattern called the Ron Resch Pattern and add color to it using the same grouping techniques. The overall aim is to equip participants with the tools to apply these techniques in their design projects.
