WASABI

Developed from the [}{] series, Wasabi consists of two mirrored container surfaces which provide four bays for different mixes of soy sauce, a central pore for wasabi, and four flaps for the placement of ginger while allowing for the placement of chopsticks within the contour of the vessel. The reverse side serves as a radial serving surface for cut pieces of sushi. Before use the twin units can be stacked to house a light for aesthetic experience.

The expanded surface is the final release of the unfolded surface series at this time. This version generates an expanded surface which provides higher structural rigidity as well as aesthetic texture. This script includes a function to find the triangular inpoint from a series of 3 different points.

lead the way


This rhinoscript, developed for circulation diagrams, converts curves into variable styles of surfaced three dimensional arrows. The arrows themselves can vary in scale, proportion, angle, and several other parameters.

Pack it Up and Cut it Out [SERIOUSLY updated]

This version, though still rather untested addresses more advanced needs for precision and application.

[updates include]
- Rhino world cs vector alignment option allows for a more precise edge between pieces
- group recognition, with independent rhinoscript function which returns grouped arrays of objects from selected objects within a predefined group. (not worded well, i know)
- label layer
- intelligent text resizing

any suggestions are more than welcome

Triangulate/Unfold [updated]

test volume
resulting template
This fabrication script presents a simple tool to evaluate a surface with a triangular pattern and unfold this pattern in a series of bands. These bands are tabbed an numbered for easy assembly. This script is the first and simplest step in a series of rhinoscripts which will attempt to provide rigid structural skins with a simple triangulation technique.
[update] code revised and cleaned, new options added.
