3D model on Mocárabes

Mocarabes or Muqarnas ceilings are one of the most intricate and beautiful resources on islamic architecture at Spain. We know how to construct them by some XVI century treatises. They are formed from 4 basic prismas with sides ratio 7/5 (aprox. ) and performed with some curved cuts in order to form 8 basic pieces or adarajas.

Thanks to Geogebra 3D, we can have a model on some pieces. The purpose is to assemble them after in a part, or the whole, ceiling. The pieces is a work of Bernat Ancochea. Many thanks for their friendly help. If GeoGebra can support in the future the possibility to export 3D files in STL format, we can have also a plastic model for it from GG.
