The script developed for this project took a minimal amount of input information - the outline of the bottom floor slab, a series of floor heights, and maximum and minimum percentage pattern goals - and created a detailed virtual model, ready to be rendered, even panel sizes which could be used in construction, and a set of geometry for rapid prototyping a scale model using a laser cutter.  All coding done in RhinoScript.
