Pseudo-code

  • Create a 3 sided polygon
  • Rotate the triangular shape around the center point and create a folded plane

  • Move the folded plane along Z and Y axis
  • Determine the area and the centroid points of folded planes

 

  • Interpolate some points and find the closest points
  • Rotate the folded plane surfaces in order to achieve a parametric pattern
  • Merge the rotated surfaces with the mapped numbers

 

Iterations

 

Iteration 1 – Changing angle of the triangular surfaces (+10) and inserting multiple points (7 points)

Iteration 2 – Changing angle of the triangular surfaces (+20) and inserting multiple points (5 points)

Iteration 3 – Changing angle of the triangular surfaces (+35) and inserting multiple points (3 points)
