I have developed a set of tessellating arc shaped tiles with sides comprised of curves of constant width. This is an interactive piece that allows people to create their own tessellating designs for an ever evolving display in the gallery.
There are enough tiles in the set for a 24"x24" table top display.

This one S shaped tile can be tessellated into many different formations. These are some of the possibilities.

There are a dozen or so shapes with arced sides that can all fit together seamlessly.

The tessellating tiles may be used to make free form designs or may also be constrained by template to create a puzzle.
