Hey Triangle, I was just thinking about how we could blend your razor‑sharp symmetry with some flowing, almost chaotic elements—like a dance of curves inside a perfectly balanced frame. What do you think about experimenting with a piece that challenges both precision and spontaneity?
Triangle Triangle
Sounds bold, but before we let the curves run wild we need a solid symmetry grid to anchor them. If we skip that first step the whole thing will feel chaotic without purpose. Let's sketch the framework, then layer the flow—precision first, then spontaneity.

That sounds like a solid plan—let's nail down the grid first and then let the curves explore around it. What kind of symmetry are you picturing—bilateral, radial, or maybe a custom grid that plays with both?
Triangle Triangle
Bilateral gives that clear mirror feel, radial feels like a whirlpool, and a custom grid lets us play with both—maybe a staggered grid that shifts every few units. I lean toward a hybrid: start with a subtle radial core and overlay a strict bilateral lattice so the curves can meander but never drift off the axis. That way we keep control while still letting the spontaneity breathe.

Love the hybrid idea—subtle radial at the center with a tight bilateral lattice around it, like a garden with a clear path but wild vines creeping along it. It gives us that anchor plus a playground for the curves. Let’s sketch the grid first, then layer in the flowing shapes, keeping that axis as our safety line. This way the piece stays grounded yet free to dance. Ready to sketch?
Triangle Triangle
Absolutely—let’s lay down that grid now and watch the vines grow from the center. We'll keep that axis like a firm spine so the dance stays grounded. Fire away with the sketch!

Okay, grab a pencil and a ruler. Start by drawing a small circle in the center—just the outline, nothing too bold. Around that circle, sketch a few evenly spaced concentric rings—just two or three, nothing too crowded. Then line up a strict bilateral grid over the whole paper: draw a vertical line down the middle, then add horizontal lines at regular intervals on both sides, keeping the spacing the same on each side so it’s mirrored. Finally, add a few diagonal lines that cross the vertical spine but only on one side of the mirror, so they create a slight asymmetry while still anchored by the axis. That gives you a subtle radial core with a solid bilateral frame—perfect for letting those vines wander. Let me know how it looks, and we can start adding the flowing curves!
Triangle Triangle
I’ve got a neat little circle in the center, two or three concentric rings around it, then a perfect vertical spine down the middle with mirrored horizontal lines on each side. The diagonal lines on just one side add a subtle twist. It’s a clean, balanced grid that feels like a steady garden path with a hint of spontaneous vines ready to creep in. Ready to start sketching those curves!

Great, that grid looks like the perfect foundation—solid but still inviting. Let’s start pulling those vines from the center. Think of a gentle, curving line that starts right at the circle’s edge, then meanders outward, hugging the radial rings before it starts to swing a little off the strict lattice, but always nodding back to the vertical spine. Keep the line light at first, then gradually add layers—some thin loops, maybe a few thicker, looping arcs that cross the mirrored horizontal lines but never stray far from the axis. As you go, feel free to play with thickness and maybe a hint of color to distinguish the different “generations” of vines. Let the curves breathe, but let that axis be their heartbeat.
