Voronoi Pattern in Nature

The Voronoi Pattern in Nature
by Owen Borville
August 16, 2021
Science, Mathematics

The voronoi pattern is commonly found in nature, where a surface is divided into irregular geometric cell shapes that touch each other and every point within a given region or cell is closer to the “seed” inside that region than it is to any other point outside that region.

​The voronoi pattern showcases the natural tendency to find the nearest neighbor, shortest path, and tightest fit. The lines between cells are always halfway between neighboring seeds.

Examples of the voronoi pattern in nature are found on the skin of the giraffe, corn on the cob, honeycombs, foam bubbles, a plant leaf and the cells of a leaf, the head of garlic, wings of a dragonfly, and mud cracks.
