Here's a Blender rendering I did a while back. I keep coming across it, and yesterday I found a physical photograph of it which I put on my office door at work.
I hadn't realized it at the time, but it is the same geometry as the zellij tiles I've studied more recently. I like the patterns that have regular five-pointed stars in them. These are difficult to have come out right, because 72 degrees really only works well with other pentagon-based shapes, and then the golden mean rears its ugly head and everything starts to look like Penrose Tiles.
Which isn't a bad thing, actually...
