Interesting discussions about the definition of Parametric:

Parametric modelling - why bother?

Generating a curve parametrically.

Gehry rewrites the rules of modelling

An example of massive parametric modelling at DRL (Design Research Laboratory, AA) thesis form third and final phase of parametric urbanism agenda: denCity is a Masters level research project by Sahra (Peter Sovinc, Saif Almasri, Suryansh Chandra)

Simple Honeycomb05

Update of last GH definition, now the compents works better in terms of loft surfaces.

Components surface 04

Another test on components surface through simple multiple component with one point reference in order to reconstruct a complex surface like continua series sculpture by Erwin Hauer.

Simple Honeycomb04

My first attempt to realize a responsive component for a surface panelization in Grasshopper. Parametric controls are applicated at this component like height of first column of cells, dimension of cells trough U&V of surface, aperture of first column of cell by an attractor point and aperture of second column cells trough slider controller.

Simple Honeycomb03

Now with this grasshopper definition you can extrude the honeycomb lines radially normal to the surface, control extrusion lenght and U,V of surface.
