A stunning Gothic-Renaissance château built entirely with NURBS

curves and surfaces. 50 levels of detail. 20 material branches.

Fully parametric. Zero Minecraft.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION (PAYHIP LISTING BODY)

──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

Château Élégance is a meticulously crafted parametric castle model

for Rhino + Grasshopper, delivered as a single C# Script component.

Every curved surface — towers, roofs, spires, arches, buttresses,

staircases — is generated from proper trigonometric polynomial NURBS

geometry. No stacked primitives. No approximations. AEC-grade

architectural realism throughout.

▸ WHAT YOU GET

• ChateauElegance_NURBS_GH_Script.cs — the complete parametric model

• README.txt — full installation guide, parameter reference, LOD map

• ChateauElegance_Support.xlsx — technical reference spreadsheet

with all 50 LODs, 20 materials, geometry methods, and formulas

▸ ARCHITECTURAL PROGRAM

The château follows a symmetrical fortified plan:

• 4 corner towers with Classical entasis profiles

• Curtain walls with corbelled machicolations and battlements

• Central keep (donjon) with steep hip roof

• Gatehouse with flanking turrets and working portcullis

• Inner courtyard with grand helical staircase tower

• Chapel wing with flying buttresses, rose window, ribbed vaults

• Great Hall wing with hammer-beam roof trusses

• Moat with S-curve banks and catenary-chain drawbridge

• Formal parterre gardens with RevSurface fountain

• Full landscape context with undulating NURBS terrain

▸ NURBS GEOMETRY — NOT PRIMITIVES

This is not a box-stacking exercise. Every curved element is

generated from mathematically precise NURBS methods:

RevSurface Towers, conical roofs, spires, apse, columns

Loft Hip roofs, battered walls, chimneys, dormers, moat

Pipe Gothic arches, trusses, gargoyles, staircase helix

InterpolatedCurve Pointed arches, parabolic buttresses, catenary chains

Trigonometric profiles include:

Tower entasis: r(t) = R(1 − 0.04t) + ε·sin(πt)

Ogee roof: r(t) = R(1 − t)^0.7 + 100(1 − t)

Spire: r(t) = R(1 − t)(1 + 0.15·sin(πt))

Gothic arch: Dual circular arcs θ ∈ [π, 2π/3] + [π/3, 0]

Buttress arc: z(t) = h(1 − (2t − 1)²)

Boxes appear ONLY where architecturally correct: flat walls,

floor slabs, iron bars, and ground planes.

▸ 50 PROGRESSIVE LEVELS OF DETAIL

The model builds progressively from LOD 1 (terrain) through

LOD 50 (weathervanes and gilded cresting). Set the LOD slider

anywhere from 1 to 50 to control complexity for your viewport,

render, or export needs.

LOD 1–3 Terrain, foundation, curtain walls

LOD 4–9 Towers, roofs, gatehouse, portcullis

LOD 10–13 Gate arch, courtyard, staircase tower

LOD 14–17 Chapel, great hall, moat, drawbridge

LOD 18–23 Spires, Gothic windows, dormers

LOD 24–28 Helical staircase, rose window, buttresses, apse

LOD 29–34 Trusses, chimneys, gardens, fountain

LOD 35–42 Moldings, quoins, balconies, arcade, interiors

LOD 43–50 Fireplaces, bartizans, gargoyles, balustrade, cresting

▸ 20 MATERIAL BRANCHES

Geometry is organised into a DataTree<Brep> with 20 branches,

one per material. Bake to Rhino layers with correct colours

for immediate rendering, or assign your own materials:

Limestone · Slate · Oak · Wrought Iron · Stained Glass · Gold

Marble · Granite · Water · Bridge Oak · Topiary · Grass

Copper · Flag · Tracery Stone · Chimney · Mortar · Terrace

Distant Hills · Gravel

▸ FULLY PARAMETRIC

Every dimension is adjustable via a simple CFG string input:

"lod=30;tR=6000;kH=32000;ent=150"

25+ parameters control courtyard size, wall heights, tower

radius, keep proportions, chapel and hall dimensions, moat

width, staircase radius, and entasis amplitude. Resize the

entire castle or fine-tune individual elements.

▸ REQUIREMENTS

• Rhinoceros 7 or 8 (Windows or Mac)

• Grasshopper (included with Rhino)

• C# Script component (built-in)

• No third-party plugins required

▸ IDEAL FOR

• Architectural visualisation and concept design

• Film and game environment pre-visualisation

• VR/AR historical experiences

• Academic architectural studies

• 3D printing (export as mesh at desired LOD)

• Portfolio and presentation pieces

▸ LICENCE

Single-user commercial licence. Use in unlimited personal and

commercial projects. No redistribution or resale of source code.
