Origami lattices with free-form surface ornaments
We introduce folding strategies to fabricate lattice structures with arbitrarily complex surface (nano-) ornaments. Lattice structures are used in the design of metamaterials to achieve unusual physical, mechanical, or biological properties.

A Categorical Treatment of Ornaments [PDF]
Ornaments aim at taming the multiplication of special-purpose datatype in dependently-typed theory. In its original form, the definition of ornaments is tied to a particular universe of datatypes. Being a type theoretic object, constructions on ornaments are typically explained through an operational narrative.

Do carotenoid‐based ornaments entail resource trade-offs? An evaluation of theory and data
Carotenoidbased displays have become textbook examples of honest signals of individual quality (Dugatkin, 2013). Although some studies have failed to find consistent evidence that carotenoidbased traits are related to physiological performance (Dale ...

Architecture as Ornament [PDF]
<p><b>We are currently in the middle of the 4th industrial revolution, where digital technology and fabrication tools have the potential to drastically change the way we think about architecture. Contemporary architectural design is now being driven by an influx of digital tools, including parametric modelling, digital fabrication, and ...

This is an essay about rust. Iron usually plays the part of strength, stubbornness, and impenetrability, but rust registers the dimension of time in the material, reminding us that it always carries the potential for its own decomposition. While great expense is incurred to stave off iron’s oxidization, we read the uselessness that rust precipitates as
