Here's a video shows the process of form generating.

From the video above, it's clear that the form starts from a set of lines. After rotating and overlapping these lines for a couple times, the main grid of the whole building is complete. The whole geometry folds up from 4 edges and becomes the box. Then some of divided geometries is filled with white board. I'm not sure if there's an inherent logic when Ito fills those blanks. My guess is some function works as the grasshopper "random select" and filled.
