Parametric Modelling for
Centre Pompidou-Metz 

-parametric modelling by Jiaxin Yun
Background Information
METZ, FRANCE

parametric modelling process:




1. draw out the outline and basic geometry shapes of the canopy and building blocks based on the original plans of the floors and top canopies.


2.Using Grasshopper plug-in to make the hexagon timber trusses
 output:






3.Using Kangaroo plug-in to make the self-standing load bearing canopy which follows the physical principles


output:

4. Projecting the step 2 truss along z direction onto the step 3 canopy


Additional:
The real challenging is to reach the perfect hexagon canopy base by Kangaroo plug-in
Here is the other approach by simply control points









Another Solutions:

1. Detaching the points from the surface and regroup them
better landing proportions
