Rhino + Grasshopper Masterclass bundle by Oliver Thomas

Develop a practice-ready understanding of Rhino and Grasshopper: building models, parametric scripts, and diagrams using tools universally adopted across architectural practice.

🎯 What you’ll learn

• Build architectural models, diagrams, and presentation outputs in Rhino
• Develop parametric systems and automation workflows in Grasshopper
• Combine modeling and computation into an integrated design workflow

✅ Requirements

• Skills: No prior experience required
• Tools: Access to Rhino 8 (90-day free trial available); Rhino 7 or 6 also suitable (some features may be limited)
• Hardware: Standard computer capable of running Rhino

📝 Description

This bundle is built around how Rhino and Grasshopper actually get used in top-tier architecture studios. Forget abstract tutorials—Oliver Thomas, former Design Technology Manager at BIG, structured these masterclasses to mirror real project workflows.

The Rhino Masterclass gets you comfortable with the core modeling tools fast. You’ll learn to develop clean geometry, produce presentation-ready diagrams, and create clear 2D outputs. It’s all about moving efficiently from concept to a polished deliverable.

Then the Grasshopper Masterclass flips the switch to computational thinking. You’ll build parametric systems that let you explore design variations on the fly, automate repetitive tasks, and get comfortable with lists, data trees, and scripting logic. The real power comes from connecting these two workflows—moving from precise geometry creation to full computational control.

You get lifetime access to all pre-recorded modules, plus downloadable models and scripts to follow along. It’s a self-paced path from beginner to a much more advanced, efficient way of working.

🧑‍🎓 Who this course is for

• Architects and designers who want to build a solid, practice-ready foundation in Rhino and Grasshopper
• Students looking to add computational design skills to their toolkit
• Professionals aiming to automate repetitive tasks and explore design variations more efficiently
