Facade Generator


With some Visual Basic help from Steve Daveys, we where able to produce a grasshopper script to facilitate the facade design. The script connects random points no grater than a certain length away from each other together. This is of grate use as the façade design is limited by the length of the buildings existing floor slabs which will be cut up to make the façade. The scrip also includes a count arrangement that will ensure that the number of façade elements created does not exceeded the amount of material available in the existing slabs, while still providing enough material for floor slabs for the new program arrangement.
