Diatom.MGX

Diatom.MGX reflects our interest in the parallels between forms that can be found in nature and mathematical geometries. By interlocking and connecting basic geometrical bodies like the icosahedra and bucky ball, an almost organic and natural object is created, further intensified by a surface structure that originates from the tessellation given by the CAD software.
