I am a lover of all things pasta. Throw some sauce of some kind on it and I am a happy man. Because I am always eating it, I never took the time to observe the geometry behind it. Check out this article that list 150 different shapes of pasta.

Hiding at the very end of the listing is a pasta shape called Marille, which is unusual in that a) it’s a recent shape, b) its designer is known, and c) it is no longer available. Marille’s designer, Giorgetto Giugiaro, previously had designed some of the most distinctive cars in the world and in 1999 was named Car Designer of the Century. (via @nicolatwilley)
