Isocube pattern generation idea?

Hi,
I am trying to find a way to produce some image like this one:

Where would i start? Or does anyone have an idea how to generate sth like that?

Thank you so much,

Pcace

Do you want to create a 3d object or a 2d drawing?

In the end i just want to create a 2d drawing, but if i would have to go a detour via 3d its also fine with me.
Cheers

Hello
it is easy and complex at the same time. Easy because it is simple rules. A cell can touch a cell by face/edge and points. But it is not allowed that a cell (cube) touch another cube just by edge and/or point. But here it seems that cell can be isolated.
it is also not possible to group cells (to be confirmed). It seems very similar to a Maze in 3D.

I did something like that with continuous cell.

Here one way of doing, I use Maze from Parakeet as it is available. I have lot Maze tools but I no more publish them. I also use Human for the lines.


I use the main Maze Pattern, add cubes on its, merges all these cubes in one object, then make a parallel view in Rhino to have the good angle of view.

It is also possible to suppress the “grey” using an emissive material

You’re from another planet or realm Laurent!

Hello
it works with my Nautilus Maze components, if you choose the wall.


I added a camera crane from Heteroptera, so you can have all the iso view easily

I was just looking at how to make mazes with my 2D curves…
