Phononic crystals and metamaterials can sculpt elastic waves, controlling their dispersion using different mechanisms. These mechanisms are mostly Bragg scattering, local resonances, and inertial amplification, derived from ad hoc, often problem-specific geometries of the materials' building blocks. Here, we present a platform that ultilizes a lattice of spiraling unit cells to create phononic materials encompassing Bragg scattering, local resonances, and inertial amplification. We present two examples of phononic materials that can control waves with wavelengths much larger than the lattice's periodicity. (1) A wave beaming plate, which can beam waves at arbitrary angles, independent of the lattice vectors. We show that the beaming trajectory can be continuously tuned, by varying the driving frequency or the spirals' orientation. (2) A topological insulator plate, which derives its properties from a resonance-based Dirac cone below the Bragg limit of the structured lattice of spirals.
