the simplest and most compact periodic arrangement of pentagons was described by Dürer.
if we connect the midpoints of these 6 pentagons we get a an elongated hexagon
( interior angels of 72°, 144°,144°, 72°, 144°, 144° ) which you can find in the medieval Islamic art
an arrangement of these hexagons is my “ faberge egg nr. 9 ”.
I show 8 pattern with this underlying structure.
