Description
For the first tower, I used the World Trade Center tower form. The tower base 1 dimension can be flexed in Dynamo in order to make the tower wider or thinner, as needed. The tower height stays constant at 750 feet. The tower I created uses the template for a twisting tower with 3 profiles. For the profiles, I created a rhombus profile and inserted it at those 3 levels. The only parameters that can be changed are the top height, bottom width, and bottom depth. The mid height is set at half of the top height. Also, the width and depth of profiles 1 and 2 are scaled so that the tower gets thinner in the middle, and then slightly wider again at the top.
