Parametrics

This video demonstrates the process I went through to build my parametric bench in Grasshopper.

contours

extrude from curve + trim

using the images above, the surfaces on the left: heightfield / on the right: meshheightfield

I found this website which include some GH files, this might be very helpful to learn the program

Here are screen shots of my bench…

For my next step I plan on modifying the number of ribs and the curvature of the form.
