Facade with different type or size units which are several times basic unit

[laurent_delrieu]

There is a short description for the glass panels
“Starting from the balconies, glass panels are spreading over the facade following the logic of the diffusion-limited aggregation (DLA). This algorithm simulates an organic growth based on randomly moving particles (in this case glass panels), which aggregate to clusters.”

Did you see what I did some time ago ?

Rectangle false "packing" (Sample and example)

You could use it and then resubdivide depending on the height.

Subdivide given area into randomly sized blocks with no gaps

Visit these topics in the old GH forum and see if they are of some help…

Three size of tiles in a grid

Now exactly what you want, I made that some time ago, it was not so fast but worked. [image] And if you want not the same color touching an edge, you can use my nColor script [image] And for the record I forget this one I did some time ago. I had to change one line of code because it doesnt allowed having just one width ! [image] grid_subdivision.gh (17.1 KB)

Search color patterm on the grid

Hello the idea could be Make an array of empty cell n * m It is possible to add a shape like =>1 cell or 2 cells in column, When you add this shape on free place suppress the possibility to add shape on adjacent cells … redo that until it is OK I made something like this here It was not too difficult to modify the script, without a lot of test.

2D Packing

It is not an answer because I thing it will be better to make a custom program to solve this problem. But here is a way to split the surface. The problem is that it split in too many rectangle, it will be better to use iterative way. Hope it could help. The idea here is to cut using the “walls”. [image] split planar surface.gh (13.7 KB)
