Did you know that the efficiency of a honeycomb is a prime example of tessellation, or that symmetry is a fundamental principle in both the design of a butterfly's wings and the facade of a building? The book begins by introducing core geometric concepts and then progresses to explore how shapes combine, emphasizing tessellation and symmetry.
It concludes with real-world examples ranging from honeycombs and crystals to bridges and skyscrapers. The book uniquely presents parallel examples from the natural world and human-engineered structures, highlighting how similar geometric principles apply to both, and touches on their application to sustainable design.
By understanding shapes, readers gain insight into design, structural integrity, and artistic expression. This book provides a fresh perspective on how geometry informs the world around us.
