A mosaic doorstep, Lancaster, England
I've probably passed this dozens of times but never noticed this charming mosaic before: who was Hannah?

A minor, but still quite large, update to HyperRogue!
Suggest moves after 3 incorrect attempts, grow Ivy through narrow chasms, use compasses, rulers and non-Euclidean tools in the built-in drawing tool, more intuitive touch dragging, bugfixes and more!

“Tessellation Archive: a collection of tessellated material systems — tiled tissues and architectures — from across the natural world.
Tessellations are structural motifs made up of repeating tiles, found in many forms and serving a variety of functions in Nature. Perhaps partly inspired by natural examples, tessellations have also been a part of human history in art and design, commonly in the form of mosaics, and more recently in the realm of bio-inspired design and engineering. This collection showcases the diversity of this motif, exploring commonalities in structure and function across environments and taxa, to inspire biological and biomaterials research, but also bioinspired design and architecture. Follow the links or scroll down further to explore the classification scheme and compare the similarities and differences between the tessellations.”

Which is better, artistically, to see the layers of fractal pentomino tiles, or just a sea of mini pentominoes? #pentomino #mathart #mathsky #tessellation

Very cute tessellation today, less complex than yesterday's but with even more twists (36 of them!), called Pebbles. Quite pleasing to fold, now that I am starting to get used to the techniques involved. It's the same on both sides! And I like the laces on the backlighting view

Oof... This is the most difficult tessellation that I ever folded. It's called Maelstrom and tightly weaves twists from both sides of the paper to create a dense storm. I'm a fan!

I loved this one (Citrus Slices)! Quick and easy, and introducing closed rhombus twists. The backside is really pretty too! I think it's one of the patterns that I will redo on larger paper at some point :)

I find this one very pretty and I am not sure if black was the best color for it... The range of twists still expands with this one, which uses a central double hexagon twist, six simple hexagon twists on the reverse side, and simple triangle twists on the front. I think the pattern works particularly well!

Again a nice model today, called Hexagon Double Bar Wells. It has hexagon twists in one side and open triangle twists on the other side. I lacked a little bit of precision for the hexagon twists, as can be seen by the size of the dots inside them on the backlighting view... The close placement of these patterns created some tricky interactions. I can feel the difficulty ramp up already! 😅

Woo I really liked today's tessellation, called Wobbly Pyramids! It looks the same on both sides (it's actually mirrored). To achieve this, one has to fold twists on both sides of the paper: it was my first time doing that. It comes with a new kind of challenge: making sure that the paper that you need on one side is not stuck on the other side, and it requires a bit of planning. That was fun! And I really like the backlighting of this one :)

Third day, although it looks a bit similar to yesterday's, today's tessellation introduces double open triangle twists, and includes all three sizes with its pattern. It required a bit of precision in the twists because many triangles ate touching. The name of this one is Gravity Wells.

Second day, introduction of open triangle twists with this pretty tessellation named Courtship where open and closed twists are dancing together :)

Star puff tessellation - un modèle d'Eric Gjerde
Pliée dans du papier peau d'éléphant, avec un hexagone d'environ 40 cm de diagonale.
Je l'ai commencée il y a quatre ans et demi, sur un autre réseau :
https://pouet.chapril.org/@Marvin_Rouge/114341656138961756
Il ne me manquait pas grand chose pour arriver au bout !
Le diagramme est disponible dans le livre *Origami Tessellations* :

Wanted to make a 48x48x48 grid. Made the first 48, then without thinking made 32 and 32. Didn't realise until almost the end that it didn't match (my light is terrible and I could barely see anything). Useless grid now, and fingers hurt for nothing :(
Fortunately it was printer paper, not fancy paper -
Back to my happy place of coding tessellating wallpaper. This design inspired by Egyptian tomb ceilings.
