Venn
Diamond forms emerge from overlapping circular paths, mathematical curves intersecting to create geometric pattern. Venn, designed by Nicholas Baker for the Metaverse 2.0 collection, employs custom 3D-printed Spirograph gears where cycloidal mathematics generate diamond tessellation through accumulated rotation.
The pattern constructs diamonds not as drawn shapes but as emergent geometry: circular curves traced by gears rolling within or around fixed circles intersect at angles creating diamond outlines through accumulated linework. Baker's process bridges analogue toy mechanics and digital fabrication—3D printing enables custom gear ratios impossible in commercial Spirograph sets, expanding geometric possibilities whilst honouring the tool's mathematical foundation. Detailed linework reads delicate rather than bold, pattern complexity rewarding close inspection whilst maintaining subtle presence from distance. Multiple colourways likely range from monochromatic restraint emphasizing geometry to softer tones creating atmospheric rather than graphic impact. The modern-delicate balance allows contemporary interiors requiring textured backdrop without assertive pattern dominance.
Printed in Cornwall with attention to fine linework clarity maintaining mathematical precision across the detailed diamond formations Baker's custom gears generated.
Venn suits contemporary interiors valuing subtle sophistication. Bedrooms, living rooms, offices, powder rooms where pattern provides textured interest without competing for primary visual attention. The delicate execution allows feature wall or full room application without overwhelming, pattern serving as refined backdrop rather than focal drama. Pairs with minimal modern furnishings, monochromatic schemes, spaces appreciating geometric subtlety and design process narrative. The Spirograph origin and Metaverse 2.0 collection context add conceptual depth for audiences valuing intersection of mathematics, nostalgia, and contemporary fabrication methods.
