Parametric ceiling with Grasshopper

In this video, we are taking a look at how the roof construction of One Main Office Renovation by dECOi Architects has been done.
There are some design techniques that could help you facilitate the same kind of design.
With the use of a polyline, you would be able to recreate the same kind of ceiling construction in any kind of architecture construction.

amazing explanation, thank you!

Very smooth tutorial. Like!

great video!

I encountered a problem with the curve closest point and sine part of the programming, the points wont go up and down to make waves, and it remains in a straight line? how do i solve this problem

[@charlie1068]

@@javizagala9770 I have the same problem, could you solve it?

Instantly subscribed.
Making discrete the plenum is a great idea for architecture. But can this be more than a geometric gesture? Of course the definition allows to turn these type of plenums thermal playing with the facade. These are natural lighting devices that diffuses indirect light towards deeper region of the space.
Well, the plenum is badly designed and the projected ceiling doesn't have the love that it deserves. These corners of architecture may gain a design possibility other than being requisites hiding the HVAC devices.

How would i change the direction that the lines are going? They are vertical right now and i need them to go horizontal and cant figure out how or where to rotate in the grasshopper script

[@SatoshiBuilds]

that's actually a really good point to have; by looking at it now, I would suggest that you would create a a grid of points, that would surround the polyline completly, then you will use point in curve, and you would sort out the points that are not inside the polyline. Once you did that, you could rotate the base grid around the center point of the polyline, in order to rotate the points (and lines) with it.

after talking with some other users i found one that ran into this same problem in a different use. When going into rhino you can select the curve and flipdirection to change which line the slats follow either the u or v sides.

4:03 wich is that tool, couldnt find it anywhere, tiping distance or others didnt really looked like that

[@SatoshiBuilds]

It's "curve closest point", would that work?

[@umeshsanghvi224]

At 8:50 when u extrude, it's is showing a U shape, it's not capped off at the top. Is it a solid beam, the extrude?

[@Miguel-ym3bu]

i had the same question. What I did to create a solid between the curve is at the end of the script, on the "extrude" component, I added "loft" and it created a solid. I know it's a year late, but I hope this helps.

[@Miguel-ym3bu]

sorry one last thing, once you loft, at the end of that component add "cap" so it makes it solid geometry.

[@hollandblondie3540]

Hi I'm wanting to do this but also have it curve into a facade so it's like a C shape, I've tried to change the surface geometry but it doesn't register it

[@SatoshiBuilds]

Hey there, really good point, with that you might need to evaluate the surface points in a more distinct matter in order to know the exact shape of the surface, the topic become a lot more intresting then, obviously and there might be more overlaps and things to solve. other than than you can try to exchange the z direction into x and y directions, might give you a similar result, or just changing and rotation the results afterwards :)

[@muro158]

the sine command makes some pretty generic curves, you could use the graph mapper and move with the perlin function that way its going to be actually random

5:55 At this point, the dot does not move. Please tell me the answer.

[@ardensun]

hello, were you able to figure it out?

[@user-qu5nw1ss2w]

@@ardensun I multiplied the sine result with 100 lol. I noticed that the points were indeed moving but the change was so small to be seen in rhino. let's see how it turns out
