In this Assignment, we were asked to create a 3D Animation that mimics a responsive facade system. Here the animation is done using Grasshopper and Rhino.

The system is responsive to Sunlight and humidity, according to which it retracts and reconstructs itself. The apertures on the facade system also adjusts itself with respect to the climatic conditions.
