Hi,

Start with Kangaroo for initial/base geometry from there triangulation (Kangaroo, Lunchbox, custom script), fabrication can be done through Ivy plugin or else any other method.

Regular triangle panel

This old chestnut. You can look into MeshMachine which is also via Scott’s very useful references. Here is another thread on a similar topic: Convert Mesh into equilateral triangles. I have tried it with your surface, but I can’t seem to get as fair a triangulation as to just repel some points on the surface and then join them up with closest neighbours (with a little post-production). I wrote a component that did that a while ago which you can try (see gha file below), it does this: [Repulsio…

Yep, as per the comments above. Relax something using Kangaroo2 or keep things nurbs based, then mesh to diamonds. You can use M+ tools if you have a surface, and the diagonalize component in K2 if it’s a mesh:

As always - it’s useful to include the source of reference images when asking for help in replicating them. (if you have an image and don’t know the original source, put it into TinEye or Google reverse Image search)
This one is a project by SoftLab, and they even have a page on the formfinding process they used including an example Kangaroo definition!
