final project

Using the parametric plugins for Rhino, design a small pavilion, and represent it through drawings and a model.

This project utilized Grasshopper to produce a geometry that allows for a large degree of variability. The only input geometry required are a closed, linear polyline (defines roof of structure), a ground plane, and a small square (defines boundary for aggregated part). Locations of tubular column structures, number of components per grid square, size and shape of component, and as well as other parameters are all variable based on inputs in the grasshopper definition, and linked to the rest of the geometry so that changes will be updated across the entire structure.
