Artisan is a paid subdivision and organic modeling tool ($120 USD). However, its free trial (30 days) includes the "Voronoi XYZ" feature, which generates true 3D Voronoi cells on a mesh surface. After the trial expires, you cannot create new Voronoi patterns, but you can keep and edit existing ones. Some users strategically use the trial to generate a library of Voronoi meshes. This is ethically ambiguous but technically "free" if used within the trial period. The results are stunning: you can map Voronoi cells onto a sphere, a terrain, or any organic shape, then smooth them with subdivision.
For a SketchUp user, adding Voronoi capabilities means transforming a simple extruded box into a futuristic screen wall, a lamp shade that casts dappled shadows, or a landscape pavilion that mimics leaf venation. Without a plugin, one would have to manually draw dozens or hundreds of irregular polygons—a task measured in days of tedious work. A free plugin reduces that to seconds. voronoi sketchup plugin free download
Created by Chris Fullmer (CLF) and later adapted by others, CLS Voronoi was a breakthrough. It generates 2D Voronoi patterns within any selected face (rectangle, circle, or irregular boundary). It also offers a "create holes" feature, which punches the cells through a surface—ideal for laser-cut screens. The script is available on GitHub as a .rb file. Installation requires manual placement into the SketchUp Plugins folder. While powerful, it has two major flaws: it does not work natively with SketchUp 2021+ due to changes in Ruby API, and it crashes on large point sets (over 300 seeds). For legacy versions, it remains a champion. Artisan is a paid subdivision and organic modeling
