Good afternoon, I am wondering wether there are any examples / pointers as to how to model something like this in rhino - where the base footprint that can be fitted onto a given shape.
Many examples - however a simple thing to try is to draw the polygon base (footprint), copy it and scale it along a curve then sweep or loft.
Btw, your topic has the ‘grasshopper developer’ tag - your question asks about a way to do it in rhino…were you looking for a modeling, grasshopper, o code-based approach?
