A Little Cube… That’s Basically Pure Magic 🌈
When we first saw the CMY Cubes Motus Icosahedron, we knew it was one of those gifts people would pick up, twist once and then refuse to put down.
This striking geometric sensory toy is made up of 20 equal triangular faces, forming a rare shape known as an icosahedron. It is also one of the five Platonic solids, making it a brilliant little find for anyone who loves maths, science, colour or clever design.
As you twist and rotate the Motus, the cyan, magenta and yellow panels overlap to create new shades right before your eyes. Hold it near a sunny window or shine a torch through it in a dim room and colourful patterns spill across nearby walls, furniture and surfaces.
