Free Grasshopper File: Line Attractor Cylinders (Architectural Solutions3D)
Original title: 【グラスホッパー定義/配布中】線アトラクターで制御するフラット天井の市松配置円柱のGHの定義
Overview
Architectural Solutions3D (Yuki Matsuda, Architectural Solutions Design Office) publishes the .gh file used in this video on GitHub as a free download. The definition arranges cylinders in a checkerboard pattern on a flat ceiling and controls their extrusion length by the distance from a reference curve that acts as a line attractor, with the grid pitch, cylinder radius and minimum and maximum heights set by sliders.
The repository contains the .gh and a Rhino .3dm file and is released under the MIT License. The stated environment is Rhinoceros 8 with Grasshopper.
