ance.
Generate the pattern with varying densities, then perhaps smooth out the points if the boundaries are too strong.
Generate a pattern on a 3D shape, then project it onto a 2D plane.
...
I'm sure there's lots of other ways. I attached examples of 1, 2 and 3.…

ells and offset it and then split it.
1) extrude the origional surface
2)make a 3D voronoi around it
3) find the intersecting surfaces of the two geometries
4)hide the rest
5) offset the surfaces to give some thickness to the material
6)split the polysurface with the origional voronoi
Or
4) use weaverbird window (I think it's called, the green square with a hole in it)
5)split the polysurface with the origional voronoi…

was printed "feet down" with support under the bottom arc, but almost nowhere else, including the interior.
1. A mesh-dual like this one is probably not as suited to structural optimization as a tri-mesh (shell issues)2. I don't think a gravity-structural logic even necessarily translates to a Form 1 printer. Unlike a makerbot, which prints bottom-up, the Form 1 prints upside-down, top-down. 3. So then, it's much more small horizontal overhangs, and the tendency from any one layer to pull apart from the next, as the printer moves up in layer.…
