Hyperbolized Platonic SolidsI created these unique 3D models as part of a scientific study on particle packing. I thought they were too beautiful not to share! What are Platonic Solids?Platonic solids are geometric shapes where each face is an identical, regular polygon. They include:Tetrahedron (4 faces)Hexahedron (cube, 6 faces)Octahedron (8 faces)Dodecahedron (12 faces)Icosahedron (20 faces)As the number of faces increases, these solids become more spherical but always remain strictly convex.
