Digital Lithic Design: „Lisca“. The conventional diamond cutting disc is re‐interpreted with curved cutting paths distributed over an undulating surface. The disc makes two cuts over each path with opposite slants to produce V‐shaped grooves that intersect with the rear surface to create a grooved network allowing light to pass through it with a strong three‐dimensional character. Design: Raffaello Galiotto, produced by Lithos Design.
