New exclusive at Enchantment event - Sirens Song themed round.

 

It's always enjoyable to create some fun mer designs that are different than what you would usually see. I was able to design these lovely retro geode tables with crystal shards or pearls with coral in the center. They have the hairpin styled legs. Perfect small additions to a fantasy, roleplay, summer or getaway type space.

 

This set is 50% Off during the event.

 

Event runs from Nov. 10th to Dec. 2nd

Parc de la Villette PARIS

La Géode is an Omnimax theatre in the Parc de la Villette at the Cité des Sciences et de l'Industrie in Paris. It opened on May 6, 1985. The architect was Adrien Fainsilber.

The spere has a diameter of 36 meters and is made by 6433 mirror glass spherical triangles.

It is fitted with the only 12.1 sound system in the world (21 000 Watt), designed by Cabasse.

Geode is a jigsaw puzzle inspired by the formation of agates, a colorful banded stone. Each puzzle is unique, emerging from a computer simulation that creates natural variations in the shape, pieces, and image.

 

Cut style - Maze

This puzzle is cut in a dense, maze-like cut pattern. The extreme intertwining and high piece count make Maze our hardest cut style. The pieces are grown in a simulation of elastic rods. The edges grow, lengthening, until they collide, pushing each other into contorted shapes.

 

Artwork - Algorithmic Agate

Each computer generated image represents a slice of an algorithmic geode. Concentric layers of color radiate from the puzzle’s edge filling the surface with a banded pattern reminiscent of agate. Each band of growth exhibits slight changes in growth rate, color and character resulting in a unique pattern.

Here's one of my son's old stones - unable to name it though!

Ubicada en la Cites de sciences, este edificio esferico tiene 36 m de diametro y dentro es una gran sala de cine y teatro.

The source for this photo. From the small version, looks like a beach in Brazil to me.

This structure, known as the Geode, is in fact also a cinema and is an impressive 26 meters wide, making it one of the largest cinemas in the world and is much larger and reflective than you would expect when you stand next to it!

This was a beautiful colors slice of geode which i decided to back light and side light it to enhance the colors.

Outre les géométries régulières, les minéraux sont un sujet pas très commun en origami. J'avais trouvé l'idée de faire une géode en voyant une telle pierre et me demandant si son «origamisation »était possible. La méthode était simple: produire une tesselation régulière pour les cristaux et lui enrouler du papier froissé pour l'extérieur. Pour les cristaux, j'ai tenté une tesselation sur grille triangulaire, mais sans succès. Mon choix s'est porté sur la tesselation de base de bombe à eau (ex: laine du mouton de Beth Johnson) en raison de son utilisation optimale de papier. L'accès au papier devient plus restreint lors du modelage, ce qui le rend particulièrement difficile. Heureusement, le modelage pour un minéral se porte bien à l'improvisation! L'arrière du modèle ressemble à n'importe quelle «roche en origami».

 

Other than regular geometries, minerals are a very uncommon subject in origami. I had the idea of making a geode by seeing bone and asking myself if its «origamisation» was possible. The method was simple: make a tessellation for the cristals and wrap crumpled paper around it. For the cristals, I tried a triangular grid tessellation without success. My choice ended up on the water bomb base tessellation (ex: wool on Beth Johnson's sheep) for its optimal use of paper. The access to the paper becomes more restricted during shaping, making it particularly difficult. At the very least, it is easy to improvise the shaping for a mineral! The back of the model looks like any «origami rock».

This quartz/agate geode is actually only 1.5" (3.8 cm) wide. It also contains a spray of tiny metallic needles that could be any one of a variety of different metallic sulfides or oxides
