Grasshopper Tutorial (Parametric Architecture)

In this Grasshopper tutorial, we are going to model the AD Classics by Felix Candela (Or the Los Manantiales Restaurant). First, we are going to start with a circle and then we will divide it into Perpendicular frames. We will use these planes and the Bezier Span component to model the shell.

Thank you very much for this particular exercise

Really good. Like your tutorials very much.

I can't imagine how many hours took to the great Felix Candela just to draw that building. And each perspective view. And we can now download an example and let the software do the drawing. Talk about miracles or magic !

[chandrasekaran]

[Pulari]

awesome !! thanks for sharing the lovely videos !!

Hi! So would it be possible to add a structural pattern to this surface and make it continuous? for example a triangulated pattern

[gd-amg]

Please, could try make the points of the curves six points and the same time make make three out of the six point curves have different height by allocating a number slider to it?
I will be glad to have a quick and positive response from you Big boss. Many Thanks

Hi, I just want to know how to add thickness to the building?

I've been having trouble merging y surfaces and mirrors together, I stumbled across this video and tried to use this method, but I still can't seem to merge them? Any ideas anyone?
