algorithmic modeling for Rhino

Hi, this is my first post so i'll be quick and hopefully someone can help me with my issue, I've made this hexagonal grid using cull pattern to find my points and then using lines to make my hexagonal grid, now my problem is that i need to create an hexagonal surface from this lines.

One idea that my teacher and I had is to find the center of each hexagon, then find the center of each gridline and then the 6 closest points to that center and create a polygon, but i am having trouble doing that.

Any idea or answers would be much appreciated, thanks.

1.erveryface in rhino only have 4 sides. If you want a face have 6sides, it must be a 4 sides face trimed by a 6 segements curve. If you want only use those points to make face, you should connect the centre and the start & end point of each side to make triangle faces.

2. If I want to make this patten, I will use hexagnal divide in launch-box plugin, it is very easy to use.

3. If you don't want to use plugin, you can draw those patten on a plan, make sure every hexagon has its closed polyline, then use "flow along a srf" to put those hexagons  on the srf, then split the srf use those hexagons.

4. If you still want to draw hexagons directly on the srf, and split the srf by those hexagons. You shoudn't use line from two points, you should use crv on srv to draw hexagons on srf, then split the srf by crv.
