Free Grasshopper Definition: Kinetic Sunshade Facade (ParaStorm lab)
Original title: Grasshopper 022 - Sunshades ( Parametric Kinetic Facade )
Overview
ParaStorm lab shares the file from its Grasshopper tutorial on a parametric kinetic façade of sunshades. The shades are modelled on a triangle grid whose cells are divided into three parts, and point attractors placed like a sun path influence the opening and closing of the shades.
The download is a RAR archive on Google Drive, reached through a bit.ly link in the video description, containing sunshades_02.gh, a .3dm model and a preview image. It is free and needs no account.
