Course in the Arabic language about Generative design in architecture with two simple examples to explain how to use Grasshopper, Galapagos, Ladybug and parametric design for architecture, especially in the first stage of the design concept.


The first example explains how to use the parametric design and the benefits of using this method to get the mass with many parameters. We can change these parameters by using the generative tool called Galapagos.


Then use Galapagos to generate the mass to get the final result of the mass by optimizing the built-up area as I chose.






The second example is like our college studies, there are some buildings we need to get the maximum shadow on the site by relocating these buildings by using the generative tool.






Lectures in Arabic on Generative Design in Architecture - The principles of generative design are applied to two simple examples, demonstrating how to begin working with parametric design and how to apply it in each example individually. Each step is explained simply, leading to a result that can be applied to other applications, allowing you to begin practicing in this field.

The first example is a building designed from scratch using parametric design, followed by optimizing the overall dimensions using a generative design tool.

The second example involves finding the optimal location for a group of building blocks based on the shadows cast by the blocks on the ground.

What you’ll learn:

Learn about generative design and how to use it in architecture
