How to realize the 3D pattern

[Xinrong (xin)]

Hi all,

When I get this picture, i want to move points to shape the model. Somehow, the math logic is not correct, but i have the insufficient knowledge in math area. if you can guide me to show the true formula, i would be very appreciate.

here is my test file.

you could opt for ShapeMap if you want to proceed with GH, through the texture map, or with the classic Rhino commands.

Rhino WIP Feature: ShapeMap for GH1

About ShapeMap ShapeMap is a Grasshopper add-on that maps 2D curves or image-based textures onto a complex 3D shape with minimal distortion. This makes texture design on models intuitive and efficient. Now Available for Rhino WIP It is included in Rhino WIP for both Windows and Mac. To find it, open Grasshopper and search for the Transform > ShapeMap tab.

a solution without GH.

hi Brv,
What you mentioned is totally new method to create something, I will spend time and energy to study the theory. However, my initial intention is to figure out the math logic behind the given picture based on my battery. Thanks for your kindness.
