How to Model Variable Corner-Angle Profiles in Grasshopper

In this video, I show how to generate closed profiles with different corner angles in Grasshopper and turn them into clean solid geometries using a fully parametric setup. Instead of modeling each element one by one, the goal is to build a flexible system that can produce multiple variations at the same time with a single definition. I also demonstrate how to create a cluster to make the profile-generation process cleaner and reusable. This cluster groups the essential steps—reading corner angles, creating orientation planes, and preparing extrusion operations—under one component. This not only keeps the definition tidy, but also allows you to reuse the same cluster in other projects. For example, the cluster I created in the video is later reused for a unitised curtain wall system with a completely different profile section. By changing only the input profile, it becomes possible to use the same setup for a totally different drawing. This offers a significant time advantage, especially for designers working with variable geometry. Here’s what you learn in this process: • Using closed curves with different corner angles as input • Exploding curves and reading their segment and corner information • Automatically generating properly oriented planes for each edge and corner • Preparing extrusion operations to convert profiles into 3D solid geometry • Cleaning intersecting volumes with Fast Solid Intersect and Fast Solid Difference • Applying the created cluster to as many profiles or projects as you want, producing many parts from a single definition This workflow is highly useful for generating parametric façade elements, profiles, frames, or any custom 3D component with irregular corner angles, and provides a powerful template you can reuse in your own projects. I had shared this video before, but since two components weren’t behaving as expected, I had to use a longer workaround at the time. Now that the issue is fixed, I’m re-uploading the proper and cleaner version. In this video, I also show how I created the result-focused version I made earlier.    • Dynamic 3D Facades with Grasshopper: Adapt...   #rhinoceros #grasshopper
