Voronoi Diagram

A Voronoi diagram partitions space into regions based on distance to seed points. Each region contains all points closer to its seed than to any other. This pattern appears in nature, architecture, and Fuller's geodesic structures.

Applications

Natural Patterns

Cell structures, crystals, foam, and territorial divisions in nature

Architecture

Space planning, structural optimization, facade patterns

Geodesic Structures

Fuller's domes use Voronoi-like partitioning for efficient load distribution
