I just checked this topic:

http://www.grasshopper3d.com/forum/topics/how-to-create-nodesbone

and I was thinking - maybe it should be done form a mesh relaxation level - with Kangaroo? It's possible? To get regullar,  triangulated pattern (let's forget about the diamonds) like in the picture above... more or less? I just tried but without any succes. Any help?Tnx

With Kangaroo you can achieve a more ordered mesh faces but you have to be very careful with set-up of the base mesh you use for relaxation.

 

See this video from Daniel Piker:
