Grasshopper

For designers who are exploring new shapes using generative algorithms,Grasshopper  is a graphical algorithm editor tightly integrated with Rhino’s 3-D modeling tools. Unlike RhinoScript, Grasshopper  requires no knowledge of programming or scripting, but still allows designers to build form generators from the simple to the awe-inspiring. It allows the creation of associative models combining large amounts of data.  Find more details about the plugin at www.grasshopper3d.com . Rhino 3d software is better explained here

HUB Training Center offers scheduled workshops aiming at Architects and designers. Training sessions cover both basic knowledge in parametric thinking and more advanced notions which include scripting and external plugin handling.
