What it does

  • Classic hyperboloid of one sheet with equation imprinted on the surface
  • Perfect desktop sculpture for math lovers, educators, and STEM enthusiasts
  • Designed by university research, authentic multivariable calculus visual
  • Doubles as conversation-starting decor or teaching aid
  • Includes version with or without formula engraved

This hyperboloid of one sheet brings multivariable calculus into the real world as stunning 3D wall art. The elegant twisted surface shows the equation x²+y²−z²=1 imprinted directly into the model, making it a functional piece of 3D art and a teaching tool in one. Whether you're decorating a dorm room, office, or classroom, this 3D print design turns abstract math into something you can hold.

Originally designed by Emily Jaekle during a university summer research project, this model captures one of the most beautiful quadratic surfaces in mathematics. The hyperboloid's signature hourglass shape and ruled lines make it instantly recognizable to anyone who's studied multivariable calc, and intriguing to anyone who hasn't.

You'll receive the version with the formula engraved, but a clean surface option is also available if you prefer minimalist mathematical elegance. Display it on a shelf, mount it on your wall, or use it as a hands-on learning aid for students exploring 3D surfaces.
