Hi, I’d like to understand how this shape is made in Rhino. Any advice is welcome. Thank you very much! [c976cb3c2026d69b230fe8f7f6d47393] [93940fab32c09dfbd2676c4b9596541c] [9a85d4389be875c0eaefe59da4f40e41]

it looks a bit like one of those many grasshopper parametric vase results … my recommendation if you want to do it without gh / model it start with a planar regular version of your pattern. find the minimal unit / cell: [image] the green surfaces help for tangent connection / edge (your cell …

It looks easy don’t think you need grasshopper for it at first glance

I am not sure, but I guess this is some kind of twist and flow along curve thing.

I am still trying to figure out how this part is made. I tried may loft, rotate stuff, but no good result. Any idea? [image]

isopod try.gh (85.1 KB) [image] I tried again with Isopod, it works somehow, but I truly do not think this is a parametric way.

[image] Quan Li: I truly do not think this is a parametric way. I thought it was a repeating cross-section (variable rotation/scale) and FitLoft, but it got slow, which sucks even if “parametric” haha. Very brute-force speed run—needs work: FitLoft.gh (37.0 KB) [image] [image]

A try for single segment with sine wave and mesh cylinder with kangaroo [image]

I 'll do something like that Important thing make a base curve representing the “flower”, perhaps just one petal that is polar arrayed is better. Then array along Z, Maelstrom result, so just the exterior control point will be moved radially. Then second scale do make the whole shape Then loft …
