Fabric, as is generally the impression, is a somewhat two-dimensional object/surface with [...]

GrassHopper Scripting 3: Hexagons on a surface
GrassHopper Scripting 3: Hexagons on a surface

This Grasshopper definition is a translation of a Rhinoscript which was written to tile a surface in Rhino with a hexagonal pattern.  User now has the control of the U and V subdivisions of this surface, resulting in the user being able to control the resolution of the tiling pattern.   The definition uses relatively few [...]
