ASSIGNMENT

Create a surface or pattern using Grasshopper and cut it or 3d print it

1. PARAMETRIC BRACELETS

WHAT

Series of 3d printed bracelets using the same code in Grasshopper.

STEPS

1) Watch a lot of tutorials

2) Play with a surface and points in surface in Grasshopper

3) Add volumes to the points of the surface

4) Add attraction points and link them to the volumes

5) Bake the results

6) Print

LEARN/PROBLEMS

- Grasshopper requires a LOT of practice and study of tutorials

- For 3d printing, be careful with the surfaces you made and check if they can be printed or not

- You can have endless possibilities of shapes with the same code
