Parametric Facade

Formato Elf Architekten

The honeycomb structure design calculated in a parametric process, which gives the building its contemporary look. To do this, it was necessary to program a sequence of commands.

Pseudo Code
1. Use the hexagon command and make sliders for the length, height, and
of the wall;
2. Use the pull point and set the multiple points;
3. Create a domain to define the brick;
4. Create a slider for both inputs by determining the parameters. Use X for length and for Z for depth;
5. Scale the geometry and before connecting make the Flatten the Points and Cells;
6. Merge and graft after to join the geometry and create the surface;
7. Add the Z unit and extrude the geometry.
