We study the emergence of a giant component in the configuration model subject to additional constraints on the edges. We partition a $d$-dimensional torus into a cubic lattice with a diverging number of compartments containing vertices and allow only local edges inside and between neighbouring compartments. We show that, when the number of vertices per compartment grows quickly enough, a giant component emerges under similar conditions as for the standard configuration model. Conversely, when the compartment sizes are fixed, our model might not feature a giant component even if the standard configuration model does have one. Locally, our model resembles the configuration model, while globally, it has properties more akin to a $d$-dimensional lattice. Nonetheless the model remains analytically tractable using multitype branching processes with infinite number of types and opens new potential ways to study percolation in graphs with geometric properties.
