QR Codes allow readers to access complex Grasshopper algorithms via tablet/smartphone for a better visualization. Parametric modeling and advanced data management.Grasshopper environment and plug-in software.It also features case studies and contributions by researchers and designers from world’s most influential universities and leading architecture firms. The book provides computational techniques to develop and control complex geometries, covering parametric modeling, digital fabrication techniques, form-finding strategies, environmental analysis and structural optimization. The book "Algorithms-Aided Design" presents design methods based on the use of Grasshopper®, a visual algorithm editor tightly integrated with Rhinoceros®, the 3D modeling software by McNeel & Associates allowing users to explore accurate freeform shapes. The book is also available on , , Amazon.es,.
