This is an outstanding material. I study architecture and do high complexity in Grasshopper however THE BASICS are super important along the way. I study these videos and combine them with the hardest exercises out there to sharpen my skills on the basics, the intermediate and the highly complex and advanced such as data trees, path mappers, lists, ranges, series and logical circuits. Parametric architecture IS differential equations with logic and geometry. However the basic plan MATTERS. The basic door, floor pattern, ramp, stairs, window and the FURNITURE matters. This is the heart and soul of architecture. Excellent video like this should happen so often. A great start for everybody and an invitation to the journey of architecture. The four principles are the layer ordering, the ORGANIZATION of FILES and props, the plan template and LINE language. Anyone who practice architecture SHOULD BE A DRAFTSMAN FIRST.
I'm 100% new and just practicing/understanding how to use the commands alone is huge! My boss wants me to learn how to draw very intricate blueprints within the next couple of months and this program is pretty overwhelming. I have looked through so many videos but haven't found many people who use a simple 2d (because I'm not ready for 3d yet, even though I will need it eventually) examples and draw with you. Thanks so much for the simplicity you bring to such complicated software for beginners.
Victoria I work in the manufacturing and construction side of architecture in the GTA. In 2009 I took a course in Rhino and purchased Rhino 4.0 and did some self training as there was very little training on the internet at the time and the local training was high priced and geared towards jewelry arts and 3D printing. Also there seemed to be little interest locally for Rhino, here in the GTA and in Canada as a whole as well. Has that changed much in this decade because I am considering an upgrade in the software and some new learning online? I believe it could be useful as I have worked for a local company that needed digital models in lieu of hand built as many artists that did those hand crafted models were retiring and not being replaced. For that work I used MoI 3D which was designed and sold by one of the lead developers for Rhino when AutoDesk was considering it as a part of their line up of products. Sort of a Rhino light version also NURBS. I also do work currently for a large company that might be in the future more interested in this possible additional talent. What sort of work is out there locally for people good at Rhino but not necessarily architects themselves in your experience if any please?
I generally wouldn't recommend full working drawings in Rhino. It's a good design program where you can do both 2D and 3D work. If you're thinking for architectural drawings I'd recommend Autocad or Revit for working drawings
Hi! When I offset it connects the inner and out walls. I am unable to simply select and delete the center part of the wall. Im at the 6:30 mark. I am doing an outside offset of 3" and inside offset the same.
When you offset they should be two separate objects. If needed, you can always select all the curves and then type explode. This will disconnect the polylines into separate line segments and you can always join them later on. Hope this helps!
You can definitely do your 2D drawings in Autocad. From there you can import your lines into rhino to 3D model. If you're working in Revit I'd imagine you'd do both 2D and 3D work in that program rather than use Rhino. This all depends on your preference on workflow!
Jiang - AutoCAD, Revit, and Rhino each have niches where they're best fit. For example, AutoCAD (while technically 3D capable) is best for 2D engineering. It's also good for 2D architecture; however, there are better options. Whether it's simply moving to a more AEC-friendly 2D tool (including AutoCAD architecture) -- or a BIM tool like Revit. Revit is best for construction drawings and full-blown BIM. Rhino serves an entirely different purpose. Rhino allows you to essentially imagine anything and mass it quickly in 3D. Many AEC professionals (including myself) use all three types of tools together. It becomes a bit of a nightmare on the small differences because you often mixup right-clicks, etc. However, it's a necessary evil as each tool is better for a certain situation. In the case of Rhino -vs- Revit specifically, Rhino allows far more creative freedom. However, once you decide to do full engineering, it's easier to move from Rhino to Revit. This helps you understand how each has its specific purpose and (unfortunately) the reason why many of us have to work in many apps.
ugh, why can’t rhino have short commands like Autocad - I can’t stand the fact that every time I find a cheaper alternative to cad has , it has to fail at basic features
do you have examples of some of the basic commands you're looking for? you can set up shortcuts in rhino to make it easier but agreed Autocad is sometimes a bit easier when it comes to 2D drafting!

so great to hear that this was helpful! if theres ideas or topics you’d like me to cover let me know. I’ll dive into some basic 3D tutorials next!
@@victoria_suen Looking forward to it. I still have a lot to learn!
@@victoria_suenyes we need 3D tutorial like this… simple and easy to learn… so much helpful
Hey Victoria, thank you for this great tutorial and I wish you success and a lot of money through your work!
thank you so much nearly all the students in my school know how to draw graphs on computer I urgently need the video like this to learn
so glad our video could help!

Great video! Thank you very much! I learned a lot.
Insanely helpful thank you so much!
I'm new to this software. I highly appreciate your video. Can you do a full working drawings using Rhino?
I generally wouldn't recommend full working drawings in Rhino. It's a good design program where you can do both 2D and 3D work. If you're thinking for architectural drawings I'd recommend Autocad or Revit for working drawings
Thank you so much for the tutorial
thank you ! I'll be looking to build out more content soon. Let me know if there's anything you're particularly looking to learn!
Love it!
coulnd't you already extract lines from the .pdf? I guess using Illustrator and then import all the lines from the floor-plan into Rhino?
Thank you!!

i am new to Rhino. I just wonder if we can use Autocad and revit to draw this kind of 2d drawings, what is the point of drawing them in Rhino?
You can definitely do your 2D drawings in Autocad. From there you can import your lines into rhino to 3D model. If you're working in Revit I'd imagine you'd do both 2D and 3D work in that program rather than use Rhino. This all depends on your preference on workflow!

Whst about a video making a 2D floor plan into 3D?
Check out our video series on weekend house where we walk you through 2d to 3D modeling!
