The Alhambra, Sala de las Dos Hermanas appears to have no such pattern. This pattern seems to be an inaccurately draw version of The Alhambra, Salon de Comares.
Geometry
- The symmetry group of the tiling is *442 (p4m).
- All the internal angles of the constituent polygons are a multiple of 22.5°.
- Contains two squares.
- Contains five regular 8-pointed star polygons with vertex angle of 90°.
- There are 12 non-regular reflective tiles (including one kite and one dart).
- The tiling satisfies the interlace condition and has two finite interlaces and one infinite interlace with straight cross-overs.
