twisting box morph
This part to whole exercise utilizes grasshopper’s box morph tool in which a surface is populated with a given component. The component is a hallow triangular prism with open ends. The surface is a parametric square tube with filleted corners capable of twisting on two axis at its center. The twisting shape morphs the component, changing the apparent density of the whole (1). By manipulating the number and dimension of the component part, the legibility of the resulting lattice, or whole, is further effected. Adding divisions to the base surface, or increasing the number of components, increases the fineness of the whole (2). Increasing the depth dimension of the prism component reduces the transparency of the whole (3). Further increase of divisions and depth creates a near solid object, less about the parts with which it is comprised and more about the final form (4).
