Researchers uncover the mathematical structure behind mesmerizing tiling patterns, linking their visual appeal to the ...

Tessellation patterns that have fascinated mathematicians since Kepler worked out their systematics 400 years ago -- and that more recently have caught the eye of artists and crystallographers -- can ...

Surface tessellations are an arrangement of shapes which are tightly fitted, and form repeat patterns on a surface without overlapping. Imagine the pattern of a giraffe's fur, the shell of a tortoise ...

Researchers have discovered a reaction path that produces exotic layers with semiregular structures. These kinds of materials are interesting because they frequently possess extraordinary properties.

A tessellation, or tiling pattern, can be repeated endlessly without showing any seams or obvious empty areas. Many such patterns are freely available online; creating your own, though, could help you ...

Geometric patterns have been used in art for centuries. They can be seen in the world’s greatest artworks, from Francisco José de Goya to Andy Warhol. “Geometric drawing is fun and rewarding,” says ...

Space to play or pause, M to mute, left and right arrows to seek, up and down arrows for volume. Tessellations are created when a shape is repeated over and over again, covering a plane without any ...
