Overview

Differential, a computational design studio, shares this grid-shell roof canopy template on GitHub under the MIT licence. The definition uses Kangaroo Physics for form-finding of a configurable grid-shell canopy, and the detailed steps and descriptions are provided inside the .gh file itself.

The README lists Rhino 6 or later with Grasshopper, Kangaroo2 (shipped with Grasshopper), Human and Weaverbird as requirements. The single GridShellFormFinding_v0.1.gh file downloads directly from the repository without an account.

What You Can Learn

  • Form-finding a configurable grid-shell canopy with Kangaroo Physics
  • Following step-by-step descriptions provided inside the Grasshopper file
  • Combining Kangaroo2 with the Human and Weaverbird plugins in one definition
