Parametric Modeling in Architecture United States Air Force Academy Cadet Chapel Project 2

Project 2

In this Phase, First, we will use Python to make the structure on an arbitrary curve. In the next step, we will use Galapagos to optimize the structure in an imaginary form, defined by two curves.


Below is the entire grasshopper file that because of a python code, has much fewer components than the phase I.

A curve, angle and the ratio between width and height are the inputs, while different sets of lists and their length are the outputs.


Here is a closer look to the python code.


The input curve could be divided with two different methods.
