Part 1:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

After playing with code we did in class, I had tried to come up with a really interesting Escher tile design. I used the code we did in class with creating our own tiles, but for my Escher tile I add multiple points of curvature, so that I can manipulate the lines based on how I like. After an hour of playing around I was able to create a design that resembles a dog. Here are some images of the Escher tile and its tiling of the 2D plane.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For Part B, I decided to create triangular tiling, specifically equilateral triangles.. I also used the code we did in class and created another line that connects from the end of point a and point b. Then I had to figure out what edges I needed to get that actually creates the triangular lattice structure. I also ran into an issue that the angle for the tiling had to be 60 degrees or it will not create a closed lattice structure. Here are some images of the tiling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Part 2:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For this part I used the base tile from part 1. I used the recommendation of using the Extruder Turtle library to create the path of my 3D tile. I used the extruded tile and changed the z height to be tall enough and baked that object to be used in my code. I created a function that changes the path of the turtle by a scale factor to get smaller as the turtle is at the highest slices of the object. I wanted to replicate the design of having two different colors in my tiling and the only colors of filament I had was black and white. I then printed 12 total tiles and used hot glue to make sure the tiles don’t fly off the paper. Each tile took about 20 minutes to print.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A problem that I had was the actual process of the 3D printing the tiles. As the tile got taller the filament would the design of the dog would mess up a little. Here some images of my tiles in rhino and its final design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Part 3:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For this part I also used my Escher tile of a dog. This section was the hardest part for me. After messing around for couples hours I found out that all I had to do was change the size of of the lattice structure to 1 and the design was really cool. I used a vessel from the parametric vessel assignment and used that to morph the surface to my tile design. Here are some images of the vessel and the design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Overall this assignment was really fun and interesting. Here is my zip file with my code, each directory contains the grasshopper files and its images for the part.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
