First stellation of the rhombic dodecahedron information


Escher's solid. This image does not depict the stellation, because different visible parts of a single hexagonal face of the stellation have different colors. However, the coloring is consistent with a depiction of the polyhedral compound of three flattened octahedra.
STL model of the first stellation of the rhombic dodecahedron decomposed into 12 pyramids and 4 half-cubes
Escher's solid is topologically equivalent to the disdyakis dodecahedron, a Catalan solid, which can be seen as a rhombic dodecahedron with shorter rhombic pyramids augumented to each face.

In geometry, the first stellation of the rhombic dodecahedron is a self-intersecting polyhedron with 12 faces, each of which is a non-convex hexagon. It is a stellation of the rhombic dodecahedron and has the same outer shell and the same visual appearance as two other shapes: a solid, Escher's solid, with 48 triangular faces, and a polyhedral compound of three flattened octahedra with 24 overlapping triangular faces.

Escher's solid can tessellate space to form the stellated rhombic dodecahedral honeycomb.
