Scientific Visualization: Art, Nature, and Vocabulary

In this work, we explore an expanded visual design vocabulary inspired by patterns and forms in nature, aiming to represent complexity more harmoniously. We present initial experiments comparing this nature-inspired approach to conventional visualization defaults and demonstrate how the expanded vocabulary can improve clarity and information density in scientific data representations
