The Pythagoras Tree is math art. A square trunk is drawn. The hypotenuse of a right triangle is laid on top of the square. From the two legs two new squares are drawn. This process is repeated recursively until there the size of the square is too small to draw. Here you can adjust the angles of the triangle and the color of the tree. You can also make the tree grow and shrink to see the steps in making the tree.

LandArt Studio is a nature craft studio for your iOS device. Choose a landscape—forest floor, beach, meadow, or mountaintop. Pick a season. Gather stones, leaves, twigs, shells, and petals from your forage pile. Arrange them into mandalas, cairns, spirals, or whatever emerges. Learn what balances and what falls. Shift the light from dawn to dusk. Capture your composition to share, or watch time and weather return it to the earth. No scores. No streaks. No timers. Just the quiet satisfaction of making something with what the world provides. FOUR LANDSCAPES Each environment has its own materials, physics, and light. Stack smooth beach stones at the tide line. Arrange autumn leaves on the forest floor. Build wildflower spirals in summer meadows. Balance angular granite under alpine sun. SIXTEEN ENVIRONMENTS Every landscape transforms across spring, summer, autumn, and winter. Materials change. Colors shift. Ice becomes a medium. Mud changes the rules. The same beach in January feels nothing like August. REAL OBJECTS Materials have weight and friction. and fragility. Natural objects (leaves, stones, shells, flowers, twigs) to use as draggable elements in the app LIGHT THAT MATTERS Slide from dawn to dusk. Watch your composition transform as shadows stretch and colors warm. A mandala that works at noon might sing at golden hour. Compose for the light you want. DISSOLUTION MODE Optionally watch your creation return to earth. Leaves curl. Petals fade. Ice melts. Stacks eventually fall. Art made from nature returns to nature. Or skip this entirely and just save your work. NO GAMIFICATION No daily rewards. No achievement badges. No notifications begging you to return. Open the app when you want to make something. Close it when you're done.
