I’m going to make a shelter that looks like this

Is there an algorithm to make this shape? Even if I look for it, it doesn’t come out well.

You have to learn Grasshopper. Grasshopper is free Rhino plugin.

Sorry, I didn’t put grasshopper in the tag. I looked at grasshopper but it was hard to make it like that.

As Andrew says learn Grasshopper. It’s lot’s of fun and very powerful.

Then try and come up with a new design along the lines of those renders that will actually stay up in anything more than a gentle breeze.
I’m going to go out on a limb here and suggest that if that thing has actually been built as per those concept renders (unlikely) then I, for one, do not want to stand underneath it. :wink:
