The final description file shows the stages in the making of the geometries in my model. From getting the basic triangular shape, it is then filleted in Grasshopper to create curved corners. Through the creation of different planes, levels are created from the same shape, eight levels for the smaller building and ten for the larger one. The fifth level in the smaller model is the one that provides the connecting piece to the larger model. Once the vertical distance apart from each level was set, the levels were then scaled to various sizes. The smaller model had levels decreasing in size from the middle (5th) level, and the larger model had levels increasing in size from the middle level. To prepare the model for laser cutting Jeremy's tutorial description file was added onto the back of both model's scripts. Attached to the side of the description file are bits were external lines created in Rhino were lofted and used to subtract a solid shape from the existing buildings. This extra part is what created the curvature along the eastern and southern sides of the entire model.
