Infrastructure that gets out of the way
A worked example — your pattern, sitting behind real page furniture.
Start buildingHow it works
One triangle per cell, pointing up, in a cell that is √3⁄2 as tall as it is wide — the proportion that makes the triangle equilateral. That ratio is what makes the pattern work: the spaces left between the repeats are themselves equilateral triangles pointing down, so half the design is the background rather than a second shape. Shrinking the triangle opens the field without disturbing the geometry.
