This design began as an experiment in color. 1x4 plates can be interlaced in myriad ways--some highly symmetrical and some more chaotic. In this design my self-imposed limitations were the exclusive use of 1x4 plates as the primary element, with color demarcating the directional 'flow' of the plates. The result was surprising, with the colors creating implied circular 'bands'. At a distance the design has distinct rings, but up close the rings fade into the blocky mechanics of the construction of the plates. This iteration has 20 rotational symmteries, but lacks any true lines of symmetry as the build pattern has chirality.
