In recent years there has been an increasing emphasis on the responsive computational techniques in architectural culture. To organize and to make our designs more performatively environment responsive we need to script our forms, we need to formulate our forms. Today a valid question arises whether the given software for these computational design techniques is a ‘slave’ or a ‘partner’. This workshop would focus on the possibilities of generating new logical forms which are climate and environment responsive. This workshop will try to introduce and explore ‘Grasshopper’ to find responsive forms and its formation for the participants. The participants will evaluate and generate forms for different environmental conditions through computer simulation which will create a noble form and new bottom-up solution for the building formation. The participants will unleash the algorithm- it will give them possibilities-they will discover new forms of architecture which are responsive to our surroundings.
