While origami-inspired materials have been explored at various scales, the challenge of creating molecular materials based on origami tessellations has remained.

Doris Schattschneider, a retired mathematician affiliated with Moravian University with expertise in tessellations, had been skeptical about the likelihood of a true einstein ever being discovered.

It was a microcosm for the tessellation Queeman saw in late '90s Harlem even if it wasn't painted with such nuance in national media at the time.

This tells us that the tessellation must be aperiodic.

The tiles in the Alhambra, which Escher described studying, for instance, transform into some of his well-known tessellations.
