tes.sel.la.tions (noun) gapless arrangements of shapes
that tile a flat or curved surface
completely
In nature, gaps mean weakness and wasted material. Tessellations provide functional solutions through geometry. The structural solidity of a tortoise shell that expands in strength — hard, enduring, and yet intricately decorative. Beehives that maximise material use are both smart and visually soothing. Earth cracks as it dries, distributing stress across the surface and minimising energy. Efficient and yet steadying in its visual repetition.
