Create Customizable, Procedural Perforated Surfaces in Seconds
The Perforated Panel add-on is a high-performance, non-destructive Geometry Nodes-based modifier designed for Blender artists and designers who need rapid and flexible generation of real geometry perforations. Whether you're working on architectural facades, industrial product visualizations, decorative meshes, or stylized assets, this tool simplifies the complex task of creating repetitive perforation patterns—while giving you full parametric control.
🔧 Key Features
✅ Modifier-Based Workflow
No need to manage complex node trees manually. Simply add the “Perforated Panel” modifier to any curve object and begin customizing your perforation pattern immediately.
✅ Fully Parametric Controls
Tweak hole size, shape, spacing, offset, rotation, and grid type (square/hexagonal). This provides a clean and flexible system to iterate design options in real-time.
✅ Non-Destructive & Editable
Works seamlessly in Blender’s modifier stack, allowing for real-time updates and stackable workflows without applying destructive boolean operations.
✅ Asset Browser Integration
Includes a Geometry Nodes group asset that can be marked and reused from the Asset Browser, improving pipeline efficiency across multiple projects.
✅ Curve Support
Compatible with Curve objects—great for procedural façades, rounded panels, or design detailing that follows paths.
✅ Lightweight & Optimized
The node system is clean and efficient, optimized for viewport performance even with dense geometry.
