What will I learn?
Gain practical skills in parametric design for pavilion roofs using Grasshopper. Master geometry, data trees, and panelization to create rule-based systems for openings, density control, and material efficiency. Incorporate sun and climate data, validate solar performance, ensure clearances, estimate materials, and produce build-ready definitions from concept to completion.

Your lessons are perfect. I got the one-year package and finally have the chance to follow several topics I'm interested in without having to switch platforms... thank you for everything you do, I've already recommended you to others...
