The first of these used the center of a square as the center of rotation. This one, by contrast, uses an intersection as the center of rotation. In each case, 45 degrees is the angle used.

An Oblique All-Square Tessellation
Image
If I've tried this once, I've tried it at least fifty-five times….
It’s hard to get regular pentagons, regular star pentagons, regular decagons, and related polygons to tessellate the plane while maintaining radial symmetry. This is my latest attempt.
Tessellation Featuring Rhombi and Concave, Equilateral Dodecagons

This particular tessellation is full of angles measuring 20 degrees, 40 degrees, and other angles which are not constructable using the traditional rules of Euclidean constructions. This is because this tessellation is based on a matrix which includes regular enneagons.

This collection of curves was built around a tessellation of the plane using regular hexagons. To make the second version, I inverted the colors, except for the black circles and arcs.

Space-Filling Octagonal Prisms and Great Rhombcuboctahedra
This is a continuation of the process shown in the last post here, but with a different coloring-scheme.
I made this using Stella 4d, which you can try for free at this website.
A Curvy Tessellation #1
This is based on the well-known tessellation of squares and regular octagons, but with each line segment replaced by two semicircles.
