how to model an operable parametric skin?

I’ve been into parametric/organic architectural design lately. I mostly use adaptive faces addon, but it can’t get me the same result as this : http://youtu.be/PBX9FPypLZQ

I know that I could use sverchok for this task, but I lack the mathematical knowledge to achieve this complex model. Is there someone who can give some insight into this ? It’s a very very complex model!

thanks

you can either use an array modifier, and a a lattis, or you could try to use wireframe modifier.





by the way, yes its just as easy to add thickness with the lattis method.
