Composite Surface Mediation

<<Composite Surface Mediation >>

Fall 2011
Professor: Joel Lamere

The goal of this purely geometric exercise was to create a mediating surface between two complex, doubly-curved surfaces that would touch in multiple locations but never penetrate the two original surfaces. To accomplish this challange, a script was written in Grasshopper that provides guide curves for a single network surface that would create tangencies that touch the outer surfaces at approximately 3000 points without ever crossing.
