Hello,
I am working on a parametric lamella/grid system on a freeform surface in Grasshopper.
Input:
- an existing grid (see screenshot, top view) an
Goal:
I want the system to behave like this:
-
each lamella (grid line) should be extruded/deformed locally
-
at some points more, at others less
-
and this should be parametrically controllable across the surface
-
not only in one direction, but potentially in different axes (e.g. normal / Z variation)
Additionally:
-
the spacing between lamellae should be controllable (denser / more open areas)
-
the overall system should still read as a projected grid from top view
→ meaning: from above it looks like a regular grid (see image),
but in 3D it becomes a locally deformed lamella field
Current issue:
-
deformation is not behaving consistently
-
difficult to control locally
-
curves don’t always remain clean after deformation
Question:
What is the best way to:
-
control local extrusion/deformation of lamellae across a surface
-
keep a clean grid logic in plan (top view)
-
and simultaneously control spacing + deformation parametrically
I addes a picture of a grasshopper script I created to try the but I didn’t work out
