If an octahedron-tetrahedron compound (also known as an octet truss) is placed on each face of a tetrahedron, then a structure is produced that can be interpreted as a 3D Mitsubishi logo. The central tetrahedron can be replaced with a smaller version of this structure to create a fractal arrangement.
