Voronoi Covering [covering a surface with a pattern ]

Guys i tried to cover my building with a 2d voronoi pattern. First i made some random points to generate the voronoi then i cut the pattern in to 4 rectangles to put them in front of each facade (front-left-rigth-back). After these i projected the patterns on to the surface of my building envelope. I cut the voronoi pattern into 4 rectangles to avoid this problem but it seems that i failed. Because of the orientation of the surfaces i guess. 

I'm looking for a way to cover a building(closed surface) with a pattern i selected? Is there something like that?

PS: btw foldsurface tool is not enough, because it can only make tectonic surfaces.

why not use 3d voronoi and intersect it with surfaces ? mapping to surface isnt perfect cause each surface has different uv params "waveform"

You could use map srf. Map each pattern to each face of the building.
