Scripting Architecture

Scripting Architecture is a way to use simple code blocks in Grasshopper Design to make shapes and building parts that change quickly when you adjust numbers or sliders. This method helps designers make patterns, structures, or surfaces that would take a long time to draw by hand. With scripting, you can create repeating forms or test many ideas fast, because the computer does the work for you each time you change something. Scripting in Grasshopper lets you connect different parts of your design, so when you move one thing, everything else updates right away.

parametric design, visual programming, generative modeling, algorithmic architecture
