๐Ÿ“Turn complex facade systems into flexible, automated Grasshopper workflows.

Join us at the Grasshopper Masterclass: Parametric Facade Generator workshop, where youโ€™ll build a powerful Grasshopper tool capable of generating, optimizing, and documenting complex architectural facฬงade systems.

๐Ÿ”— Seats are limited. To register now, tap the link: https://paacademy.com/course/grasshopper-masterclass-parametric-facade-generator

โœจ Led by architect and computational designer Ognjen Graovac, this intensive workshop goes beyond modeling. Youโ€™ll learn how to build reusable algorithms, generate flexible facฬงade systems, automate thousands of architectural elements, organize clean and scalable Grasshopper definitions, attach project metadata, calculate quantities and costs, and export structured data for real-world workflows. By the end, youโ€™ll leave with a production-ready tool you can adapt to future projects.
