Delaunay lamp

Delaunay lamp

The Delaunay algorithm connects nodes based on proximity, but printing such geometry presents challenges. The small connections vary in thickness, leading to changes in transparency across the pendant. The texture from the printing process remains visible on the steepest connections. If even a single print failure occurred in one rod, the entire print would have been compromised.
