These are all congruent but extend in distinct directions.

  2. has a non-repeating polygonal boundary
  3. can tile the plane so that each copy extends in a distinct direction
Then, what if we used other irrationals? Can you guess which one I used here? 🙂

Wow. Fascinating. Are you able to share this file vector art? I can see very interesting color theory applications to layer on top of this structure
