Testing Spatial Deformation

Instead of searching for an iterated and rule-based variety, this method captures instances of spatial deformation by transforming the hyperframe. This liberates us from a classical understanding of pattern deformations that are enframed within regular polygons, mostly rectangles or hexagons. Grasshopper has a built-in component to study such variety. The spatial Deform component gets vectors as inputs and transforms any given geometric object according to it. This[1] website has also another nice use of this component.

Here is the Grasshopper definition including the Islamic Pattern cluster from semi-regular tessellations, and spatial deformation using two vectors: [GHX: 0.9.0056][3]
