fractal patterns

Infinitely repeating shapes

Fractal patterns are shapes or structures that repeat at every scale—zoom in and you see the same pattern recurring infinitely.

Found throughout nature in coastlines, snowflakes, fern fronds, and blood vessels, they also appear in mathematics and computer graphics.

The branching of trees follows fractal patterns.

The concept extends to any self-similar structure where parts resemble the whole.
