Hi,
I am trying to make one face of the Kilimatorium Climate Center (“A” on the image).
It would be really grateful if someone can give any thought.
I am not looking for perfect solution but some advices.
Issue:
I created the wooden cladding kind of rectangular pattern on the polysurface by projecting crvs.
There are two issues:
-B part on the image:r
no matter how many UV division I applied, I can’t make realistic division in that part.
which solution could be to make more division as the A part on the image.
-C part on the image:
I am stuck with this part for long time.
I would like to create each rectangular surfaces in order to make wooden cladding.
The wooden shouldn’t be bend.

Thanks for your help in advance!
Hello,
From the image and some other pictures found on Google, it appears the panels are really rectangular, whereas you made their projection rectangular. That, associated with a weird surface construction, leads to the incorrect panels near the top and bottom limits.
I have tried a few things :
- changing the loft for a sweep and panel that sweep right away
- reducing the arcs deviation along Y
- changing the midpoint calculation - this I removed in the final file, but you should have a look at it, your arcs middle point should be based on the middle between top and bottom points, not on the horizontal curve.
- use Rhino’s Paneling tools
- try to offset a center curve along the surface…
and eventually I rebuilt everything from scratch using a grid of points.
I’m not confident your surface is really representative of the real project, but as an exercise this should be sufficient.

Hi @sungbok.song
here’s also one quick test towards the right direction.
I changed the loft to a sweep, so instead of a brep, you get a clean surface.
Contouring for approximate vertical seams. ShrinkFaces with small script because the lunchbox component seems to untrim the sectioned surfaces. Count the panel amount per section, through length of the central isocurve.
The Quad panel component seems to extend each surface for reason X, so this small overlap appears.

Very quick analysis of the project shows that the cladding is quite simply overlapping each lower layer.
And, instead as in my test, the panel division is following a horisontal seam.
So, that would mean that your projection method would actually be more realistic version. However, I think that the extreme curvature in your surface, compared to the real project, causes the issues in part B of your image.

Hello Magicteddy,
Your advice is very helpful.
Thanks a lot.
I would like to mark your comment as a solution but the system doesn’t allow me to check.
