Learn to build a Voronoi pattern on 2d and 3d surfaces in Rhino and Grasshopper using point and curved attractors, with an accompanying script.
Create a 2d voronoi pattern on a rectangle in Rhino and Grasshopper by generating random points on a boundary surface and applying a Voronoi subdivision, then bake the cells.
Create 2d voronoi frames by decomposing geometry into edges, vertices, and faces, referencing center points of spaces, joining curves, lofting frames, and using a point attractor to drive pattern scaling.
Create a 2d voronoi pattern on a surface driven by a point attractor, using surface evaluation, center points, and remapped line lengths to control the pattern.
Explore creating a 3d voronoi pattern in Rhino and Grasshopper by generating points, scaling a bounding box, and intersecting the voronoi with a surface to produce clean, bounded cells.
Create a 3d voronoi frame by processing fragments, joining curves, baking topology, scaling around the centroid, lofting to a wavy surface, and modulating the pattern with a curve attractor.
Create a 3d voronoi pattern using curve attractors in Rhino and Grasshopper by moving a curve along z, using closest point, deconstructing a surface, and remapping distances.
Finalize the export and render of the voronoi pattern using attractors surface in Rhino and Grasshopper.
If you are interested in Grasshopper and want to learn how it works, this is perfect for you. Don't be intimidated and give it a try! My name is David Copete and I will make sure to guide you through the exercise steps so you can learn the interface and how to work with this program. Once you get through the initial learning stage, it will become one of your most useful design tools.
In this class you will learn how to create an Voronoi Pattern using Attractors using Grasshopper for Rhino. These tutorials are great for students who are trying to expand their design arsenal. They will allow you to create some complex and impressive designs in a quick amount of time. The steps in this tutorial are useful for many other applications. So make sure to follow me for future lessons, and let me know if you have any questions, or ideas for future videos. By the end of this course, you will have a better understanding of how Parametric Design works and how you can apply it to your specific use case.
I highly recommend this lesson! Why?
· It is simple and straightforward with full explanations of the process of parametric design using Grasshopper.
