Presented here following images of the seven different physical Zometool rosette models are 7 interactive vZome models which can be built with the Zometool “The Beauty of Rosettes Kit”. Some additional vZome Rosettes are also included.
Geometrical Rosette
A Rosette pattern is a pattern that has either of the following types of symmetry.
- Cyclic Symmetry. Rotational symmetry around a centre point but no mirror lines.
- Dihedral Symmetry. Rotational symmetry around a centre point with mirror lines through the centre point.
A Rosette 🏵️ A physical Zometool model may also be built of any of these 7 Rosettes from “The Beauty of Rosettes kit”
Also of this 3D Rosette Rose with practical stand.
These first four models are in the RED plane and use blue struts only
Rosette 1
Rosette 2
Rosette 3
Rosette 4
Models 5 and 6 are in the Yellow Plane and also use red and blue struts.
Rosette 5
Rosette 6
This model is of Rosette 7 the most complex and is in the Blue Plane it uses red and blue struts.
Rosette 7
The skeleton of this model by John Kostick is also Zometool buildable.
A 3D Rosette Rose skeleton which is Zometool buildable by John Hall (Jackpike). A projection of the skeleton structure of the Rose forms a Rosette
