Tessellation, also called mosaic or plane covering, is a way of covering a plane or surface with a pattern of figures.
The figures cannot be superimposed and there cannot be empty spaces between them.
This work shows the tessellations applied to the faces of polyhedra, with views that can be accessed with Virtual Reality resources.
