i'm basically trying to remodel the swiss-re building aka 30 St Mary
Axe a radial tower building in london. i need to create a diagrid,
which is basically a triangular system. so i'm trying to figure out
how to connect the bottom floor plate to the top floor plate with a
line that shifts over to the right at every floor plate creating a
spiral to the top. the width of the floor plates change as you go up
the tower. as the floor plates begin they start to widen as you go up
but, reach the maximum width at about the 18 floor from about 39
floors. after the 18 floor plate the floor plates start to get
smaller all the way to the top. so i need to connect the floor plates
with a line that shifts at every plate (like a diagonal) i then need
to create that same effect going the opposite direction so it creates
a diamond effect. it's similar to the shift example on the wiki
tutorial which only connects two floor plates of the same width. i
need to connect multiple floor plates of different widths but i can't
figure it out. any suggestions?
