The room needed special acoustic treatment due to a number of hard reflective surfaces and its use for seminars and video conferencing. [...] A river flow and degradation simulation was carried out resulting in a meandering flow pattern, which formed the basis of point allocation upon which the Voronoi architecture partitioning could be applied. Following the river simulation, the space was partitioned using the Voronoi algorithm and the subsequent polygons used as control hulls for B-spline surfaces.

There's a crumb coat of vanilla buttercream underneath the fondant.
