What you'll learn

  • Master the Rhino 8 Ecosystem: Navigate the interface, command line, and viewports with the speed and efficiency
  • Model Complex Organic Architecture: Build a complete Exhibition Center project (as seen in the course preview) featuring freeform roofing and structural glazing
  • Create Parametric-Style Furniture: Design a Ribbed Park Bench using advanced slicing and contouring tools ready for laser cutting or CNC fabrication.
  • Understand SubD vs. NURBS: Learn exactly when to use Subdivision tools for soft, organic shapes and when to use NURBS for precise manufacturing.
  • Generate 2D Technical Drawings: Convert your 3D models into professional 2D plans, sections, and elevations for client presentations.
  • Prepare Files for Fabrication: Master the UnrollSrf and Make2D commands to flatten complex shapes for real-world construction.

9 sections71 lectures19h 56m total length
  • Rhino3D-Session 01 _Interface Navigation Display Modeling basic_017:40

    Explore the Rhino 3D interface, navigation, display, and basic modeling, learn template-driven unit and tolerance settings, and interact with the viewport from concept to fabrication.

  • Rhino3D-Session 01 _Interface Navigation Display Modeling basic_02.120:50

    Navigate the Rhino interface by mastering the menu bar, command line, command history, type-and-autocomplete, and visual toolbars. Use the four-view work area and dockable panels for properties and layers.

  • Rhino3D-Session 01 _Interface Navigation Display Modeling basic_02.212:00

    Master Rhino 3D interface navigation by managing viewports, highlighting and maximizing windows, orbiting and panning with the mouse, and customizing layouts and toolbars.

  • Rhino3D-Session 01 _Interface Navigation Display Modeling basic_0323:28

    Explore the viewport pulldown menu in Rhino to master display modes from wireframe to rendered, and learn to set views, construction planes, grids, and captured views for precise modeling.

  • Rhino3D-Session 01 _Interface Navigation Display Modeling basic_0418:43

    Master the basics of Rhino 3D modeling by moving from 1D to 2D to 3D, using curves, surfaces, and solids with core tools for points, curves, surfaces, and editing.

Requirements

  • No prior knowledge is required. Just focus and time.

Description

Is Rhino 3D intimidating you? It doesn't have to be.

Welcome to the Rhino 3D Masterclass: Go from Beginner to Professional. Whether you are an architect, industrial designer, jeweler, or engineer, Rhino is the industry standard for unconstrained 3D creativity. But let’s face it: the learning curve can be steep.

Most courses teach you what the buttons do. This course teaches you how to think in 3D.

Why learn from me? I have spent the last 12 years using Rhino in professional high-stakes environments. I haven’t just "read the manual"—I’ve solved the complex geometry problems that keep designers awake at night. I’ve distilled decade of workflow secrets into a clear, step-by-step curriculum that takes you from "zero" to "intermediate professional" in record time.

What makes this course different? We don't just model random shapes. We focus on Workflow and Topology. You will learn how to build models that are not just visually pretty, but mathematically clean—ready for 3D printing, CNC machining, or high-end rendering.

The Curriculum:

  1. Foundations: Interface, Navigation, and the Gumball.

  2. 2D to 3D: Accurate drafting and turning curves into surfaces.

  3. Surfacing Strategy: Lofts, Sweeps, and Network Surfaces.

  4. Advanced Editing: Boolean operations that actually work.

  5. Output: Creating technical drawings and preparing files for fabrication.

By the end of this course, you won't just be "using" Rhino—you will be designing with it.

Who this course is for:

  • Architectural students and professionals who want to move beyond SketchUp or Revit limitations.

  • Industrial Designers who need precise curvature continuity (G2/G3) for product manufacturing.

  • Designers interested in creating complex forms and 3D Printing.

Requirements :

  • No prior 3D experience is required.

  • A copy of Rhino 6, 7, or 8 (Rhino 8 is recommended to follow the new features). A free trial version is available on the Rhino3D website.

  • A standard mouse with a scroll wheel (critical for navigation).

Who this course is for:

  • Course id for everybody who has inclination to learn something exiting and new.
  • Architectural students and professionals who want to move beyond SketchUp or Revit limitations
  • Industrial Designers who need precise curvature continuity (G2/G3) for product manufacturing.
  • Furniture Designers & Makers interested in creating parametric-style designs learning how to prepare files for CNC and laser cutting.
  • Professionals switching from other CAD software (like SolidWorks or Blender) who need to learn the specific "Rhino way" of thinking about geometry and workflow.
  • Complete Beginners who find Rhino's interface intimidating and want a clear, step-by-step learning path from a 15-year industry veteran.
