Grasshopper Modules - Proxy Wiki

From Phylogenesis, FOA 2003 The following Grasshopper modules were created in consultation with FOA's Phylogenesis, in particular the taxonomy of forms found at the conclusion of the book. Grasshopper is an exciting and evolving modeling platform - the following examples attempt to develop a range of geometric examples to explore its form-making potentials. Andrew Payne, a GSAPP alum, has created a comprehensive primer on Grasshopper that can be found here. You should have this handy for reference. Helpful Modules These modules are provided to supplement Grasshopper with a few simple features. Truss Module Grasshopper 3D Truss This module creates an offset truss from a given surface. Point Topology The simplest form of data to work with, points can be propagated into 3D space and can have geometry mapped to them. A Matrix is a 3-Dimensional point set, interpreted as a field of voxels. Download Rhino File Matrix.3dmDownload Grasshopper definition Example-Matrix.ghx Line Topology

lianeee333 | Digital Fabrication in Architecture Group Folded Shell Structure by Liane Ee Making Sheet Architecture Folding turns flat sheet into doubly curved shell Folding adds structural stiffness to a surface and can be a potential construction system for large span structures with complex geometry. Material Alucobond, invented in the 1970s and used mainly for facades, can be CNC milled using angled drill bits, which allows the material to be folded.

… kinds of ways … » Grasshopper Grasshopper At times, (especially when producing animations) it may be useful to link several controlling variables to a single slider. Adding color by customizing the default Grasshopper preview in Rhino is a way to build more dynamic representations by adding a level of detail and information overlay to the geometry on screen. Builds on the Reactive Geometry post. Methods introduced include isolating data from short lists, forming relationships between Rhino and GH geometries, and assuming surface curvature by faceting with planar surfaces. This building block example builds on earlier posts by setting up contingencies between various geometries. A building block script to introduce the graph mapping component in GH (useful for prototyping example variations), as well as other surface editing components. A building block script to introduce setting Rhino-modeled components into GH. Intended to introduce basic component development and surface aggregation.
