The course Modelization and Simulation introduces students to computational design methods and digital modeling strategies as integral tools for contemporary architectural and urban thinking. Through the combined use of Rhinoceros 8 and Grasshopper, students will learn how to translate design concepts into parametric models capable of generating, analyzing, and visualizing complex spatial configurations. The course emphasizes the relationship between geometry, data, and performance — exploring how parameters such as building footprint, height, density, street width, and green space ratio can shape urban form.
