Microscopic Fungi Plant Growth – Leaf Veins From the concept of

“starting at one source” from the leaf-veins formation “elongated at the tips” concept from hyphae growth and Henry Segerman’s explanation on Moebius Strips in during his lecture, I was inspired to make a form that sits on top of each other and intersects at one point that appears to be continuous and joined.

“Branching out in different directions”

From this concept and again using the word “one source” as a guide, I created an angular form that joins in at the centre yet ‘blooming out to different directions’. I found the shape too representational and thought that would be hard to model digitally with NURBS so I altered the shape to be more continuous and less angular, forming a smooth flowing shape.
