labyrinth globe

I would try to make a map of the world on a labyrinth sphere model as the picture, do you think it is possible with parametric tools. Did you know what tools to use, or can be help me please. ?!

This could be a good start :

I've seen this post, but the concern of this design is that it is not uniform on the sphere, there is a top and a bottom. I would like to make a homogeneous thing 'that we can feel lost ... everywhere!

but thanks for the help!

It is not uniform because it use a sphere with "standard" UV. A sphere could be meshed with quad or triangles quite uniform. Here is definition which use Mac Gros definition and 1/6 of a sphere. I thing there are many possibilities. Try to begin a difinition with what you want, bring it.

If you don't want a true labyrinth Truchet tiles could be a good solution. With tri ad quad, whatever you want.

One Truchet tile rotated randomly on a quad mesh sphere.

It's look nice ! Did you have the definition of this ?

I put the file here.

You can make other tiles instead or rotating just one tile.

Thanks again, it's a good start... But, it's not really what I want to do.

thanks again twice !

thank you, I tried your definition, but it really is not homogeneous, you see the deformation between different surfaces.

Bonjour, j’ai vu que vous avez continué à travailler sur cette idée...

j’ai essayé de jouer avec votre définition, mais je ne comprends pas comment vous arrivez à réaliser un labyrinthe avec un tracer plus fluide (comme sur l’image en exemple dans le lien si dessus)

Vous évoquez aussi la possibilité de changer la section... là aussi, j’ai du mal à comprendre comment on y arrive.

Hello,

for the fluid path I used the definition here

These are only "paths" But it is also possible to generate sort of path and walls
