Modeling 3D Patterns with Rhino Grasshopper
3D Printing 2
A course by Arturo Tedeschi , Architect and Computational Designer
About the video: 3D Printing 2
Overview
“Here I will show you how to smooth the edge of the mesh, correct any discontinuities and give it thickness in order to obtain a printable 3D model.”
In this video lesson Arturo Tedeschi addresses the topic: 3D Printing 2, which is part of the Domestika online course: Modeling 3D Patterns with Rhino Grasshopper. Learn algorithmic modeling to create 3D patterns for fashion, jewelry, or architecture, from the initial concept and design to the final file for 3D printing.
Partial transcription of the video
“3D printing Our procedure could be, in some way, already complete, but if we analyze the final mesh, by virtue of the construction we used in the development of surfaces, we see that we got an uneven edge. We now want to carry out a further procedure to be able to regularize the edge of the mesh. We extract the edge of the mesh. This can be done through Weaverbird's Naked boundary component. We connect it to Mesh 01 and disable the mesh preview. Let's see how the component extracts the outer edge yes, but also the edge of the individual holes of our pattern. Our goal is to select only the o...”

A course by Arturo Tedeschi
Arturo Tedeschi is an architect and computational designer who lives and works in Milan. After studying architecture in Naples, he went on to work in multiple architecture and interior design studios. He later discovered algorithmic modeling, which combines his two greatest passions: programming and design.
Driven by his fascination for this branch of modeling, he became a self-taught expert on the subject and even wrote a book about it called Architettura Parametrica – Introduzione a Grasshopper, which has seen success in the form of new editions, a translation into English, and multiple printings. Since then, he's been traveling around Italy sharing his knowledge with students and providing consulting services for businesses, architecture studios, and universities.
