In this tutorial, I walk through a complete Grasshopper workflow for generating triangulated spike panels on a structural space frame. Starting from a referenced SubD or remeshed geometry, this script panelises the surface into diamond and triangular panels, generates thickened panels and spikes, and constructs an underlying structural frame, all as discrete, bakeable elements.
The workflow is designed so you can reference in your own geometry, control panel density, panel thickness, spike height and scale, and adjust the depth, offset, and member thickness of the supporting space frame — allowing you to quickly explore expressive, fabrication-aware structural systems directly inside Rhino and Grasshopper.
