PROJECT : ORIGAMI HUT
May 29, 2010
This is one of my small projects which is using various ‘Components’ on this blog; Spiral, Diagonal Connection, Origami Folding… It is a good example using GH for everything in design process including fabrication assembly details and unfolded drawings. Also it’s a kind of test about different ways of using origami geometry which I studied before. The definition is pretty well organized, but too complicated to be shown here. It is just using various combination of other ‘Components’ on this blog.

Hi, I am a Masters student at the University of Nottingham, UK. As a part of my dissertation, I am exploring the performance of parametric facades. In order to do this, I am trying to learn Grasshopper and rhino. As I am fairly new to these two softwares, I would appreciate if you could help me understand how you created this particular geometry and any other folding sort of geometries. As it appears that you have a very good knowledge and understanding of these softwares.. your help will be highly appreciated! Anxiously waiting for your reply..Thanks!
Thanks for your interests. There are a bunch of examples and tutorials on this blog, you can learn with following the steps. If you have any questions, please email me.( hgkook@gmail.com ) I could help you. Good luck for your study.

Hi
Thanks for the tutorials, I was wondering if I could have the GH definition. I want to use the point attractor for my hexagon surface & then I want to extrude the point so that my hexagons would be arrayed along with the vector of the main point… I hope I say it right.
Sure you can do it with attarctor. Each module can have a vector between the surface and offset surface; each individual module would have own vector. And you can apply attactor; please refer to the density components on this blog. Good luck!

I am attempting to create components that can work together on a surface (bowl or shell shaped). I am attempting to create these components so that they can interlock with one another to create this surface. I was wondering if I could take a look at your code to see how your components are organized to interlock with one another? Thank you, great project by the way!
Thanks for your interest in my works. The idea for interlocking is tested physically through my previous project using origami folding(Making a New Ground). And the same logic is used for this project. I think you can see the logic through my axon diagram here. You need each plane for each surface. And you can offset the edge line of surface; you can make any details on each independent plane at the same time. Independent plane for each surface is also important to generate the exploded unfolding 2d drawing. Unfortunately, I don’t want to share my definition ghx file with anyone. I love to share the logic to make, that’s what i am doing here. Sorry. If you have any questions related to my works, let me know i can help you what i can do. thanks.
