Parametric Rings
For this project I created a System of Grasshopper Definitions to surface map details to rings to create easily customizable Rings Via grasshopper
STARTING EASY
The first 3 rings I designed with grasshopper were these 3, rendered in Sterling Silver these 3 all use dispatch patterns to change the scale position and quantity of balls on the ring.
Ramping Up
These next rings, used 2 parametric programs one to create a curve that encircled the ring, the second one scaled the pearls based on how close they were to that curve.
Wrapping it all up
This final ring is a culmination of all the rings prior. Both the pearls and Gems use a dispatch function to create a more nested pattern, While also scaling based on a location of a point, in the case of the gems the closer the smaller and the pearls vice versa.
