Can we create this kind of pattern with grasshopper?

[Clara_Schuller]

Hello guys,
Do you have an idea if it’s possible to create this kind of patern using grasshopper ? If yes with which kind of pulg in etc. or if you have idea of first resouces that can help.

I’m open to every suggestion,
Thank you in advance,

Kangaroo balloon and voronoi frame

If you just want to make a smoothed version of the initial Voronoi cells, then you could skip the whole simulation part like this: [image] voronoi_cage.gh (10.7 KB) If you do want to simulate though, there is a new soft-body collision component in the latest R7 SRC that makes it a bit easier. This will give a more realistic squeezing together of the balloons. When you let them move around freely like this, the gaps between them no longer follow the original Voronoi division.

CurveCollide: getting duplicate polygons in Kangaroo solution

For deformable polyline curves, another way that can work is to use the Collider component on the line segments. It does require a radius for the collisions, so isn’t suitable if you need very sharp corners, but it seems to work a lot better than the old Collide2d goal (which I was never really happy with the performance of, which is partly why I hid it). I might try again at some point to make a better deformable curve collision goal not requiring a radius, but I think this Collider option is t…
