Awesome project Ivan.  Do you have any strategies for combating the twisting of the panels?  I am running into that problem of keeping square panels planar while solving for thickness over a complex shape.  I have a feeling you might have to create a more pyramid like shape (rather than perfectly perpendicular to the triangles) when you thicken out the panels with quad shapes.  Let me know how that goes!

no, they are connected directly with nodes of some sort

Love it :D

the boxes are supported by some sort of space frame or?

thx Arthur,

I`ve used the Equilateralization force in Kangaroo to deform the mesh based on 4 or 5 anchor points,that gave me the nice triangles and the base form.Video on the proces will be nice and I'll do it when I have the time.Still working on a way to unfold correctly the boxes for fabrication.But finding someone willing to do it and having the equipment is actually more difficult for me, being currently in Bulgaria...

Ivan, how did you use Kangaroo in this project ? Any video to share?

Great stuff, love the way components become earth filled with grass !
