Bow Tie Nature 06

Happy Saturday! Today we explore the fascinating geometry of a diamond, but from a unique perspective. Instead of the typical flat facets, we drew inspiration from the diamond’s tubular structure, creating a pattern reminiscent of tessellation, with forms that repeat and fit perfectly. Each segment of this bow tie extends in continuous lines, as if they were the layers of a diamond projecting outward.The diamond’s tubular structure provides incredible strength without adding unnecessary weight. Through this efficient organization, the diamond reflects light optimally and remains firm, a concept we’ve adapted for this bow tie by using its tessellated design to maximize stability and lightness.When it comes to 3D printing, this piece is a challenge for your printer. Retractions are crucial for achieving high-quality layers, and the overhangs have minimal distance, which allows for printing without supports. It’s a true test of precision and control, but the result is a light, efficient p
