[janth]’s build relies on semitransparent acrylic mirrors for the infinity effect, lasercut into triangles to form the faces of the icosahedron. The frame is built out of 3D printed rails which ...

A 3D shape with regular polygonal faces, meeting at equal angles, is a platonic solid. There are five platonic solids, the tetrahedron, cube, octahedron, dodecahedron and icosahedron. A prism is a ...

Watch the mesmerizing process of crafting a perfect molecular icosahedron using magnetic balls. Each piece fits seamlessly into place, creating an intricate and visually striking structure.

AltDynamic has returned to Kickstarter for a 17th time to launch their new Truncated Icosahedron. Constructed from titanium and steel the wireframe model has been inspired by the 1996 Nobel Prize ...

If you would be interested in making your own paper replica of a truncated icosahedron, the folks over at Gijs Korthals Altes have designed a printable pattern. Other places to find a truncated ...

Particle averages showed a structure similar to that of the original icosahedron ... pentamers filling otherwise open pentameric faces could control the release of cargo contained within the ...

The works of the Greek polymath Plato have kept people busy for millennia. Mathematicians have long pondered Platonic solids, a collection of geometric forms that are highly regular and are ...

the dodecahedron twelve pentagonal faces, and the icosahedron twenty triangular faces. Plato proposed that four of these solids built the Four Elements: sharp-pointed tetrahedra give the sting of ...

We thank the reader who drew this to our attention and we agree that all instances of the word “icosahedron” should be changed to “dodecahedron”. In addition, “20 pentameric faces” in ...
