The GeoCube

The GeoCube is a magnetic geometric puzzle that can be transformed between different shapes.

 

There are more than 70 distinct shapes that the GeoCube can be transformed into.

 

Among those there exist 6 major shapes that will fall into place.

 

These major shapes are listed here in the order they are created in the tranformation, beginning with the Cube.

 

For ease of use and communication we decided to give names to the different shapes

 

1 The Cube

The beginning of the journey.

6 Sides

8 Corners

12 Vertices

36 Magnets

Only one "movement" away from the Cube. This Shape can be seen as a 3 dimensional representation of the Star of David

2 The Star

3 The Hive

A hexagonal tiling as it can be seen in the honeycombs of beehives. The opposite side resembles half of a Cube

A Triangular Shape of beautiful simplicity. The backside resembles the "negative space" of a Cube

4 The UFO

The Ball - or technically speaking, the Rhombic Dodecahedron.

It is the inverse of the  GeoCube - meaning the Cube has literally been turned inside out.

 

This shape has twice the Volume of a Cube

5 The Sphere

Half of the Rhombic Dodecahedron.

6 Half Dome
