Triangle Drift

A field of triangles arranged on a six-fold lattice, each one rotated to a different orientation. From a distance the pattern reads as a steady texture. Up close, every triangle is pointing a different way.

The form belongs to the family of controlled-drift patterns — geometry with order at the top level and small variation underneath, the way a hand-cut tile floor or a hand-woven textile breaks up the absolute regularity of pure repeat.

At jewelry scale a small cluster lifts out as a pendant — the drift visible inside a single cut piece. At architectural scale the same drawing carries a tile field, a screen, or a paving pattern.
