What it does
Massing studies built from modular cubes usually mean rebuilding the grid by hand every time you want to see one more option. Boxified Form Generator Pro builds a massing study from a three-dimensional grid of boxes, with per-box size, a tapering reduction toward the top, and pattern and seed controls for variation. Every input sits on a slider: set the box dimensions and grid count, dial in the taper, then nudge the two seeds to cycle through patterns in a live Rhino model. You get through several massing directions in one sitting instead of remodeling between each try, and once a variant reads right, bake it to ordinary Rhino breps and keep detailing by hand from there.
What is included
- Box length, width, and height controls
- Box count in X, Y, and Z
- Box reduction for a tapering effect up the form
- Pattern scale plus box seed and pattern seed for variation

Questions about this product
Can I control each box individually?
You control the grid globally through size, count, reduction, and the two seeds. Once baked, the boxes are ordinary Rhino breps you can edit by hand.
Do I need any plugins?
No. It runs on native Grasshopper 1 in Rhino 8, so there is nothing extra to install.
