Aggregation Designing with discrete elements is a challenge. Many variations of aggregations can be generated using grasshopper and these designs can be hard to interpret into architecture. The biggest challenge can also be the controlling of the tool, rather than being restraint by it. Our design approach uses the muqarnas as discrete elements which in an aggregation would create spaces or building elements. To do this we wrote different rules which would guide each element to one another, depending on how we wrote it. Each element has different lenght in the edges and some of them are the same. These edges were written in the rules to connect eachother. To gain control over the aggregation growth we made specific rules which would grow into the chosen field. Beneath are some studies we madeto try to understand and gain control over the tool.
