Cyprus has a long history of decorative patterns of noteworthy geometric complexity.  Starting from discovering such a 2D pattern, participants of ARCH-262, Advanced Computer Aided Design, [ARC] University of Nicosia, developed and proposed their own 3-dimesnional pattern and populated it to create a tessellated tile, using the knowledge acquired during the course. The tile was modeled in Rhinoceros 3D/panelling tools, set in Voxelizer, exported and fabricated using the desktop Z-morph 3D printers of [ARC] University of Nicosia.Click edit button to change this text.
