Penrose Tilings
The Penrose (after Roger Penrose, mathematician) tilings, being non-periodic, have no translational symmetry – the pattern cannot be shifted to match itself over the entire plane. However, any bounded region, no matter how large, will be repeated an infinite number of times within the tiling.
In this case of Ravensbourne University only three tile shapes are used.
