We use the examples to inspire you and focus on a certain part of element which we will strip down to the basic geometric operations, giving you insight in how to approach more complex projects. They are inspired by famous and iconic architectural projects, but are not full reconstruction. The course starts with a basic introduction and overview of the software and then a few example projects are developed. The software can also be used complementary to other architectural design software, although it is quite complete in itself. This is very popular within several innovative architectural offices where it is used for complex forms, organic architecture and extensive tweaking of 3D models. We use Rhinoceros, a quite popular NURBS modelling software for McNeel. Have you ever wondered how certain architectural designs are actually created? You might assume that it is helped by software, but which system is suited for this? In regular CAD software that architects often use, such as AutoCAD or SketchUp, the creation of organic models and surfaces is hard to impossible. This is a basic introduction and overview of modelling complex 3D Freeform shapes in the context of architectural design. This will be available for all student members, so join the course now before the price is increased to $69. 2015: A new Section is in preparation, recreating the basic shape of a "Shell House".
