Creating a Lamp Shade Using MecSoft’s RhinoCAM

Scott Crawford of LMN Architects uses Rhino Grasshopper and MecSoft’s RhinoCAM to create an artistic lamp shade. Each section of the lamp shade contains similar curve patterns generated in Grasshopper and then RhinoCAM was used to generate 2-1/2 axis engraving tool paths to create this decorative pattern.

This is one of many projects by LMN Architects. View our case study to see more projects from LMN.
