Behind the pattern

A twist between
two straight edges.

My Twisted Louvre Facade definition divides the top and bottom rails into strips. A curved middle line is split and rotated, then lofted back to those rails to form a series of twisting louvres.

This browser version follows that construction with a sampled control curve and thickened surfaces. It starts with the saved 10 × 10 proportions, 15 louvres and 84° rotation. Curve interpolation and mesh details can differ from Grasshopper.
