I’m Grasshopper beginner. I would like to create a louver that has a straight angle and a twisted section, with the twist gradually decreasing until it becomes closer to a straight section. I have base of surface and curve. I asked chatgpt, but he couldn’t even make the louver rectangle. The green line on the photo is where the twist occurs.
It would be really helpful if someone helped me out.
Thank you.
please post the gh file you have used to create what is shown on your screenshot
This is how I would approach it - simplified version:
Create twisting element, guide profile, define upper and lower limits.
Distribute the twist according to your design at the lower/upper limit
3.Move the twist to the guide line using eg. Project Point
Extract upper profile of the twist and project it on the upper limit. Do the same with lower one:
Using Loft create upper and lower parts of the louvres:
Merge & Join
Adjust guide crv to jour liking
Remember this is made using simple surface created in Rhino.
To get the effect of changing properties being closer to the straight line you’d need to add scaling factor for distributed twists but you need to figure out yourself.
You can also create parametric twist adding another level of fanciness to your work.
Good luck.
