The tiling shares a mld-class with the Penrose Tilings, e.g. Penrose Rhomb, Penrose kite-dart and Penrose Pentagon boat star).
The inflation factor is the square of the golden mean $(\frac{\sqrt{5}}{2} + \frac{1}{2})^{2} = \frac{\sqrt{5}}{2} + \frac{3}{2} = 2.618033988\ldots$.
In contrast to the …

A classic, using a kite (blue) and a dart (orange) as prototiles. See Penrose Rhomb for more details.

One manifestation of the famous Penrose tilings. In fact, this is the first manifestation found by Penrose, the Penrose rhomb, the Penrose kite-dart and the Robinson triangle tilings are refinements of this one. (You may also click ‘Penrose’ below ‘MLD-class’ above to see the others.) Their …

Certainly the most popular substitution tilings. Discovered in 1973 and 1974 by R. Penrose in - at least - three versions (Rhomb, Penrose kite-dart and Penrose Pentagon boat star), all of them forcing nonperiodic tilings by matching rules. It turns out that the three versions are strongly related: …

A variation of the Penrose rhomb tilings, suggested by R. M. Robinson. The rhombs are cut into triangles, thus making the substitution volume hierarchic. Thus, this one is obviously mld with the other Penrose tilings. For more details, see Penrose rhomb tilings. Each triangle comes either left- or …
