infimensions / radialsymmetry

Grasshopper plugin for quick & efficient exploration of radial symmetry in Rhino

RadialSymmetry (v1)

Grasshopper plugin

Our process at INFIMENSIONS cluster oftentimes involves designing based on sacred geometry and mandala-style radial symmetry. Instead of doing it manually in Rhino we were looking for a quick and efficient way to instantly see how our design on one axis looks when rotated chosen number of times (axes) around a chosen point (origin).

We couldn't find an existing solution, so we built one and decided to open source it for everyone to play with little to no previous experience.

• works with 2D objects, as well as 3D objects (but probably slower depending on your computer specs)
• quickly see design relations between axes
• copy the whole Grashopper patch if you need different plane, origin and/or number of axis for a different layer (as many as you need)
