At a basic level it is an ‘R’ repeated in space to convey rhythm, and the lines that combine to make up the form convey fluid motion and waves. When seen as a whole, or when merged into a solid form, the resulting shape also creates an ‘R’. We also introduced an optical effect in the curves, which are convex or concave depending on how you view them, adding a level of mystery and a nod to the multiple views and approaches involved with scientific discovery.
