Hi, I’m trying to apply interlocking blocks developed on the plane (originating from tetrahedra) on a double-curved surface, like a paraboloid, while keeping the surfaces of each block flat. Any help? Thanks [interlocking blocks] [Surface]

No I want to keep the geometry of the blocks planar, not curved. A kind of discretization of the curved surface while maintaining interlocking.In the image the geometry bends or am I wrong?

if you want to have planar Surfaces you have to bring the single connecting surfaces to the curved surface and build the blocks again in 3d. my guess: it is not possible if the Top / Button Surface-Pattern should also have planar surfaces only - you need to accept steps here -|-|-| |-|-|- -|-|-| |…
