The five Platonic solids - tetrahedron, cube, octahedron, dodecahedron and icosahedron are the only perfectly regular three-dimensional forms possible in Euclidean space.
They are the geometric basis of crystalline structure, atomic geometry, and the organization of biological forms at the cellular level. In architectural application, they provide the spatial vocabulary for domes, vaulted structures, and the hierarchical organization of complex forms.
Their proportional relationships encode the harmonic series that connects geometry to music to the physics of vibration.
Using these key building blocks of nature has a profoundly calming effect on the psyche.
