Abstract :
The use of an interesting triangulation scheme to design a monumental sculpture of an easter egg is described. The triangulation method used to approximate the egg´s surface is based on paper folding. The development of the program and its generalization to three dimensions are examined. The calculation of the three parts of the egg (a middle-barrel section and the two end caps) and some unsolved questions regarding this technique are discussed.<>
