Persian Tile Patterns

I’m collecting some info about a certain mathematically interesting tile pattern used in Persia in the 13th Century.

• Penrose Tiles
• In Medieval Architecture, Signs of Advanced
• Girih tiles
• Some SVG Girih images
• Nice summaryThe scientists found that by 1453, Islamic architects had created overlapping patterns with girih tiles at two sites to produce near-perfect quasicrystalline patterns that did not repeat themselves.
