input surface
triangulated
mesh dual
Heres an approach using your surface with mesh machine. I think Mesh machine is now part of Kangaroo2, so should come with Rhino6. Otherwise you can find the .gha on the forums.
You will also need a Dual component. i use the one from NGon

This method creates two versions of panels (triangular and ngon) with similar sizes, however they are not identical by any means, the ngons are not planar, and they are not clustered as per the Museo Soumaya, which is a pretty sophisticated approach.
I’d recommend reading the document above to get some insight into what’s involved.
Hopefully this gets you started
