A geometric pattern is a collection of shapes, which when repeated creates a cohesive design. We see geometric patterns in material microstructures, which under certain boundary conditions are energetically favorable. In this image we write a computer code to generate geometric art (inspired by an Islamic tesssellation) by regularly repeating a motif with star polygons (8 nodes, 22 nodes) on a hexagonal lattice.
