jrgpots Posted November 7, 2013 Report Share Posted November 7, 2013 The internet makes it so easy to use someone else's ideas without giving intelectual acknowlegement. I don't want to steal. So......Does anyone here have a good tesselation pattern to share. Jed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeterH Posted November 7, 2013 Report Share Posted November 7, 2013 Jrgpots, Does anyone here have a good tesselation pattern to share. A rather large subject, can you give some idea of what you want to do with them? Regards, Peter My first thoughts: - Islamic tilings - Girih tiles (behind much/most Islamic tilings) - Escher's work - The seventeen wallpaper groups (most of them present in the Alhambra tilings) - Quasicrystals - Celtic knots (regular tesselation, varying pattern on the tiles, smooth joins) ... and -- coming from a different direction -- Wang tiles. Where the aim is to have a small set of patterned tiles that can be used to produce an infinite tiling where the joints and the periodicy of the tiles are hard to see. Some of the space-filling curves almost qualify. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pres Posted November 7, 2013 Report Share Posted November 7, 2013 Most draw and paint programs have tutorials on the web on how to do a tesselation using the program. Just another option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
