Computational Design | Assignment 02

Performative Cannula is an experimental facade which undergoes geometric changes controlled by a set of variables. The assignment follows the design process and performance of the facade using animation with the help of grasshopper.

Design Process:

Step 1: Generating the basic tube and giving the desired curvature.

Diagram 1

Step 2 : Dividing the surface into squares and extruding the boxes according to the domain range.

Diagram 2

Step 3: The opening on each surface is a parametric curve that generates the dynamic result.

Diagram 3.2

Step 4: Box morph the generated result on the cannula for the final result.
