A Tessellation Featuring Dodecagrams

This tessellation may be viewed in two different ways.

The first one is to see it as consisting of regular {12/5} dodecagrams, in orange, yellow, green, blue, and violet; along with rhombi in red; and equilateral triangles in magenta.

The second way is to view it as made of violet, regular dodecagons; kites, of four different sizes and shapes, in blue, green, yellow, and orange; red rhombi; and equilateral, magenta triangles.

A Polyhedron Derived From the Rhombicosidodecahedron

To make this polyhedron, I started with the rhombicosidodecahedron, then applied the “morph duals by tilting to rectify” function in Stella 4d: Polyhedron Navigator — twice. If you’d like to try this program for yourself, there is a free trial download at http://www.software3d.com/Stella.php.

Three Different Views of the Third Stellation of the Rhombic Dodecahedron

This is the thrid stellation of the rhombic dodecahedron. Its facelets are 24 rhombi and 24 “chevron” hexagons. Here’s another view, colored by individual face, with parallel faces having the same color.
