[tutorials & resource material arranged by topic - Regular and Semi-Regular Tessellation Paper

      Tessellations, tile patterns that cover a surface, come in two general kinds -- regular and semiregular.

      Regular tessellations are composed of triangles, 3.3.3.3.3.3, squares, 4.4.4.4, and hexagons, 6.6.6.

      Semiregular tesselations include those listed below, and as above, they are named by the number of sides of the polygons that center on a vertex of a smallest-number-of-sides polygon.

      Below paper has been provided for the regular and semiregular tessellations. Each page is linked through a graphic on this page.
