ParaCloud™ for Rhino 4.0 workshop

ParaCloud™ for Rhino 4.0 - A Generative Parametric Design Workshop
Sep 24-25, eCAADe 2007 conference

ParaCloud is a low-cost software solution that converts an Excel™ spreadsheet into a powerful parametric modeler that drives CAD tools and extends its abilities. ParaCloud powers Rhinoceros with generative design capabilities and provides parametric control to accurately and intuitively edit your design for fabrication, construction and performative studies.

ParaCloud powers Rhino with:

• Parametric Behavior Modeling
• Surfaces and Ribs unfolding
• Parametric Shells and Ribs structures
• Parametric Components Population
• Rhino Blocks Generative Population
• Simplified Numeric Control over Spatial Geometry

ParaCloud and McNeel Europe offer a 2-day open workshop for eCAADe 2007 conference participants.

Join the generative design workshop and learn how to enhance your design workflow with ParaCloud and Rhino.

The workshop will explore:

• Generative Modeling
• Behavior Modeling
• Scripting without Scripting
• Performance Driven Design
• Parametric Point-Clouds
