Some of the Native West Coast bows had cool goemetric designs and cool color combos too. You could easily make up your own geometric designs of triangules and/or circles. You can Google Northwest Native American bows and get plenty of info and pics.

I always thought an ancient Egyptian geometric design would look cool on a pyramid bow
Guns have triggers. Bicycles have wheels. Trees and bows have wooden limbs.
