The rook and pawn move in straight lines, so they are cubes. The bishop moves diagonally, so it carries a diagonal. The knight is an L.

The board pairing is the part that surprises people: 50mm squares under a 29mm base looks absurd on paper and is exactly right in the room, because these forms need air to be legible.
