Frank Morgan - Optimal Pentagonal Tilings - CoM May 2021
In 2001 Thomas Hales proved that hexagons provide the least-perimeter way to tile the plane with unit areas. Of course, among hexagons, the regular one is best. Similarly, the best quadrilateral is square and the best triangle is equilateral. But what is the best pentagonal tile? Unfortuna

Gwen Fisher - Beaded Tessellations of Polyhedra & Penrose Tilings - G4G13 Apr 2018
One can weave many things using beads and thread by placing beads on the edges and weaving each tile of beads into a loop. Many artistic examples are presented using glass and plastic beads.

Roger Penrose - Forbidden crystal symmetry in mathematics and architecture
Sir Roger Penrose provides a unique insight into the "forbidden symmetry" of his famous penrose tiles and the use of non-repeating patterns in design and architecture. It is a rigorous mathematical theorem that the only crystallographic symmetries are 2-fold, 3-fold, 4-fold, and 6-fold s
