Geometrical Mosaics

Mosaics are the covering of the plane with figures, on a way that are no overlapping and that don't leave black spaces between them. The pieces that are used are called "teselas". 

There are a lot of forms of getting a mosaic. The most simple are formed by regular polygons of the same type (for example squares, regular hexagons or equilateral triangles), but also can be combined with other kind of polygons.

TYPES OF MOSAICS
  • Regular Mosaic: There is a regular mosaic when it is only used a regular polygon.

  • Uniform mosaic: In all the vertex concur the same regular polygons, and in the same order. 
  
  • Non uniform mosaic: They are composed by regular polygons too but can't be repeated on the plane.
