Radial Mechanism

In this Grasshopper tutorial, we are going to model a Radial mechanism which translates a circle up and down. This mechanism is similar to the Pantadome System developed by Mamoru KAWAGUCHI. You can change the size of the linkages and discover how it’s going to affect their movement.

3d Sphere Wave

3d Sphere Wave

In this Rhino Grasshopper tutorial you can learn how to apply a sine wave on a sphere based on a point attractor. First we will model a mesh sphere and then we will use the distance between the point attractor and the mesh vertices to move them in their normal direction.
80Hz Pavilion

80Hz Pavilion

In this Rhino Grasshopper Tutorial, we are going to model a parametric facade similar to 80Hz Pavilion. First, we are going to make a grid of points in the XZ plane and move it away from a point attractor. then we will use a second point attractor to rotate the XY planes on the points and make the base for the petals. Finally, we will use dispatch to select the planes in a zig-zag pattern and model the panels.

Al Bahar Towers facade

In this grasshopper tutorial, I will show you how you can use the 4point surface tool to fold a surface inspired by the al bahar facade mechanism. First, we will study the techniques we can use to model the module and then we will make it parametric with grasshopper.

Anemone Grasshopper

In this anemone grasshopper tutorial, I will show you how you can use anemone to produce a simple hexagonal fractal in grasshopper. First I will use anemone to deconstruct a hexagon into its segments and then we will use the “point on curve” tool to extract a point on the edges and make a new hexagon. This simple algorithm will be iterated by anemone so the fractal forms.
