Rhino & GrasshopperTutorials

Learn how to create an Organic Roof Structure (Centre Pompidou Metz)

n this course, we’re going to use a typical roof structure to a schematic design level and for our reference project we are going to use the Pompidou Center in Metz from Shigeru Ban architects. We will begin by generating the pattern for the roof structure on the construction plane and we will show you the logic behind this interesting pattern using Grasshopper 3D.

Next up, we’re going to model the roof shape, using a plugin for Rhino called T-splines. This plugin will allow us to model organic shapes more quickly and accurately. When we’ve modeled the roof shape, we’ll use Kangaroo, a physics engine plugin for Grasshopper, to relax the roof shape to a more natural form.

When we have the final shape of the roof, we will jump back to our pattern we generated in the beginning of the course and project this pattern on the roof shape using Grasshopper again.

Finally, when we have our structural lines projected, we will use Grasshopper to generate structural spans and generate structured interconnected pattern.
