Learn Grasshopper & Computational Design for AEC Workflows
Practical online courses for architects, BIM specialists and computational designers who want to learn Grasshopper, Rhino, parametric design, automation, data workflows and AI-assisted AEC systems.
Featured course
Learn Grasshopper through real architectural workflows
This course is not just about learning components. The goal is to understand how to think parametrically, structure Grasshopper definitions and create workflows that actually help in architectural projects.
Grasshopper fundamentals without vague abstractions
Data trees explained through real design problems
Parametric façade, massing and housing workflows
Connecting Rhino, Grasshopper, BIM, Speckle and external data
How to make definitions clean, reusable and client-proof

Join WaitlistWhat you will learn
From Grasshopper fundamentals to advanced AEC automation
Ontologic courses are built around the idea that Grasshopper is most valuable when it becomes part of a larger project workflow. You will learn how to structure definitions, control data, create reusable systems and connect computational design to real architectural and BIM problems.
Learn Grasshopper as a system
Move beyond isolated tutorials and learn how to structure reusable Grasshopper definitions for real AEC workflows.
Understand data trees
Finally understand how data matching, grafting, flattening and tree structures work in practical architectural design problems.
Automate project workflows
Turn repetitive modelling, analysis and documentation steps into flexible automated systems for design teams.
Connect design data
Learn how Grasshopper can interact with Speckle, APIs, databases, BIM tools and external platforms.
Use parameters and KPIs
Use data, options, metrics and dashboards to support better design decisions in architecture and real estate.
Work production-ready
Learn clean naming, modular organization, reusable logic and workflows that survive real project pressure.
Who it is for
Learn Grasshopper for real architecture and AEC projects
These courses are not made for abstract software learning. They are designed for people who need better workflows inside real architecture, engineering, BIM, computational design and AEC organizations.
Architects
For architects who want to learn Grasshopper and move beyond manual modelling into controlled parametric design workflows.
Computational Designers
For designers who already know the basics and want to build cleaner, stronger and more scalable computational design systems.
BIM Specialists
For BIM and digital design professionals who want to automate repetitive tasks and connect design data across tools.
Why learn from Ontologic
Learn Grasshopper as part of a complete computational design workflow.
These courses are built around realistic architectural projects, BIM workflows and software systems. The focus is not on collecting tricks. The focus is on learning how computational design creates value for design teams, decision-makers and AEC organizations.

Questions about learning Grasshopper with Ontologic
The courses are still in development, but the direction is clear: practical Grasshopper training for architects and AEC professionals who want to build real computational design workflows.
Is this a beginner Grasshopper course?
The first Ontologic course is designed to help architects and designers learn Grasshopper from the fundamentals. It starts with parametric thinking, data flow and core Grasshopper logic before moving into practical architectural workflows.
Is this different from normal Grasshopper tutorials?
Yes. The focus is not just on learning individual components. The courses are built around real AEC workflows: massing, façades, housing logic, data trees, BIM-style data, automation and scalable definition structure.
Who are the courses for?
The courses are made for architects, computational designers, BIM specialists, engineers and AEC professionals who want to use Grasshopper, Rhino, data and AI more strategically in real projects.
Will the courses cover advanced computational design?
Yes. The roadmap includes advanced computational design topics such as scalable Grasshopper systems, APIs, databases, Speckle workflows, dashboards, automation logic and AI-assisted AEC workflows.
Do I need coding experience?
No coding experience is required for the Grasshopper fundamentals course. More advanced tracks may introduce scripting, APIs, databases and AI workflows, but the goal is to make these topics practical and approachable for AEC professionals.
When will the courses launch?
The first courses are planned for fall 2026. The waitlist is used to share launch updates and understand which topics, formats and workflows people care about most.
