When two hexagonal graphene layers are stacked with a 30-degree rotation, the resulting structure exhibits the characteristics of a quasicrystal, featuring patterns composed of equilateral triangles, squares, and elongated rhombuses.

To reference graphite—the material made of many stacked layers of graphene—I incorporated the texture and tone of pencil sketching, evoking the layered nature of graphite while visually tying the concept back to the familiar form of a pencil.
