Is there a way to manually create this triangular parametric form?

This building was modelling in Revit - but I was wondering if this triangular parametric form can be achieve in archicad? I want to create something similar but was wondering if anyone knows an efficient way to do this? I can only think of doing this through morphs

Grasshopper?

Hi, as said by @Lingwisyer Grasshopper-Archicad is the right choice, in addition you could give a try to this object:

Responsive facade that interact with grassohopper and returns an unique object instead of a collection of archicad native element

Manually >> it is just a basic mesh. Choose a grid en set all edges sharp.

With Gdl (and ai) you could make something with a little more control like level of detail and resolution etc...

with native Archicad tools? probably yes, but it wouldnt be fun

but still, have a look at a guy at youtube who calls himself ArtTool, who does non conventional geometries using only archicad standard procesess
