My homepage video describes shows off this shape, amd describes how it was created (starting from one little cube, and following very simple rules!)

Also, my website

has loads of free 3D printing resources (design apps & stls) on it.
This particular structure is very interesting, because it has lots of hidden details (chambers & such) which ca only be seen be peeking through the holes of the model. If one sliced the shape in half, a surprisingly elaborate interior would be revealed. Some parts of the model have a fractal form, but there is variation in different parts (like in the Mandelbrot set). This mixture of self-similarity and hetrogeneity gives the structure a strangle organic feel.
Again this object can be bought directly
