    Spiral segments are useful in the design of fair curves. They are important in many applications. Cubic Bézier curves are commonly used in curve and surface design because they are of low degree, are easily evaluate, and allow inflection points. This paper generalizes early results on planar cubic Bézier spiral segments and examines techniques for curve design using the new results.
