The Round and the Pointed

"This carpet is round, or rather rounded, but not a circle. Hans Karl Zeisel called this shape "Cosmarion", in which gentle curves contrast with hard spikes and points. Behind the name "Cosmarion" lies an almost endless series of geometric preparatory work that led to this interesting geometric shape. Hans Karl Zeisel calls this shape "Cosmarion". It would be better to speak of a group of shapes. Because in the meantime Zeisel has developed a whole cosmos of variants of this shape. Zeisel had a prototype of this shape made for himself some time ago, which has already been shown in various exhibitions."
