For this project, I explored Platonic solids by creating an icosahedron, first as an analog model and then digitally in Rhino. I built the icosahedron in Rhino, then flattened the shape, added glue surfaces for assembly, and designed a pattern inspired by organic triangles from my old paintings. I gave the triangles a structure. The pattern evolves step by step, with the triangles becoming smaller until they converge into a small central triangle. After finalizing the design, I prepared 2D templates for laser cutting, ensuring precision and accuracy. The final model was assembled by hand, combining digital and analog techniques into a unique form. This approach allowed me to explore how geometric patterns can create organic, evolving surfaces in 3D objects.

First we made a an analog icosahedron with glue and cardboard
