The Geometry Junkyard: Tilings
Tiling One way to define a tiling is a partition of an infinite space (usually Euclidean) into pieces having a finite number of distinct shapes. Tilings can be divided into two types, periodic and aperiodic, depending on whether they have any translational symmetries. If these symmetries exist, they form a lattice. However there has been much recent research and excitement on aperiodic tilings ...

Tessellations: Technology and Culture Design is part of the human consciousness. Culture is how people see and do things from a historical prospective. The images shown here with the Java graphics are rooted in thousands of years of use and living. Escher began his regular plane division work in 1936 in Spain. He got famous in the 50's. He was unique in his vision and passion and he used to say ...

Hyperbolic Tessellations
Hyperbolic Tessellations A regular tessellation, or tiling, is a covering of the plane by regular polygons so that the same number of polygons meet at each vertex. No doubt, the tessellations of the Euclidean plane are well-known to you. They are: {3, 6} in which equilateral triangles meet six at each vertex; {4, 4} in which squares meet four at each vertex; and {6, 3} in which hexagons meet three ...

Java applet to play Penrose tiles
A Java Applet to play with Penrose tiles Penrose tiles contain only two different kinds of pieces, and they tile a whole plane only nonperiodically. For information about Penrose tiles, read the book Penrose Tiles to Trapdoor Ciphers by Martin Gardner.

The Geometry Junkyard: Penrose Tiling
Penrose Tiles Penrose was not the first to discover aperiodic tilings, but his is probably the most well-known. In its simplest form, it consists of 54- and 72-degree rhombi, with matching rules forcing the rhombi to line up against each other only in certain patterns. It can also be formed by tiles in the shape of kites and darts or even by deformed chickens (see the perplexing poultry entry ...

Pentagons that tile the plane The problem here is to find a single tile shape with five sides which can tile an infinite floor without leaving holes.
