The Wenger Cube, a truncated
hexahedron. The cube was first designed in 1970 in Santa Cruz,
California. The idea had come while making structures for an
artist. The task was to make a solid cube and to cut off a portion
of one corner. After making the object I decided to see what
the result would be of removing the corner completely. The result
was an object with a triangular face that when placed on that
face produced a shape with three sloping roof sections. The idea
of making a large version came quickly.
