Generative-Design-with-Python3

Generating network structures using Python coding in Grasshopper.

Python 3 inside Grasshopper!

In this project, I built a model to demonstrate how recursive functions work. The tree-like form seen in the image is the visual output of this logic. 💡

The Workflow:

First, I wrote a script using the Python 3 (Py3) component in Grasshopper. This code relies on recursive logic to generate the overall structure and the network of branching lines.

Here are the variables for this section: 🔸 Inputs: Random Seed, Base Point, and Growth Logic (Length and Angle) 🔹 Outputs: Generative Curves

Ultimately, for a better visual representation, I connected the curves generated by the code to the Multipipe component (which is a SubD tool in Grasshopper) to create a continuous volume over the lines. 🎯

By changing the seed variable in the Python code and tweaking the pipe settings, different forms take shape.

🛠️ Tools Used:

• Rhinoceros 3D / Grasshopper
• Python 3 / Py3 Component (for coding the recursive functions and generating the line network)
• Multipipe Component (for visual representation and adding volume to the lines)
