Circle (Part 1) | Circle Packing to Model Nature in Architecture (Beginner Grasshopper Tutorial)

In this tutorial we will examine circles and some simple ways they relate to the organization of space.

In nature, dividing space is fundamental. It’s a ubiquitous starting point for an endless array of essential functions. We can learn a lot by examining how nature organizes space and by noticing the benefits that stem from their solutions. We can inform our own design processes by studying the way nature solves packing problems in different scenarios.

Because a deeper exploration of how nature leverages the division of space should be prefaced with an understanding of circle packing, we will use this tutorial, which defines the circle component, to explore circle packing in a couple different ways.
