rhino + grasshopper

points covered in session:


introduction to rhino interface, display modes, useful commands, shortcuts
basic modeling concept, curves, two-way curvature surfaces
unroll surface, array, flow along surface

 the three images below show a one-way curvature surface made using splines and the command loft. the surface was unrolled using the command unrollsurface and had a geometry arrayed along it. it was then applied back onto the surface using the flowalongsurface command.



the following three images show the result of using a grasshopper pattern algorithm to flow a pattern along two-way curvature surface
