Famous examples are the works created by the Arabs in the Alhambra and the paintings of the Dutch painter Maurits Escher.

Three approaches are described in this book.</p><p>In Part I, it is shown that there are 17 principally different possibilities of tesselation of the plane, the so-called plane crystal groups. Complementary to this, ideas of Harald Heesch are described, who showed how these theoretical results can be put into practice: He gave a catalogue of 28 procedures that one can use creatively oneself following in the footsteps of Escher, so to speak to create artistically sophisticated tesselation.</p><p>In the corresponding investigations forthe complex plane in Part II, movements are replaced by bijective holomorphic mappings. This leads into the theory of groups of Mbius transformations: Kleinian groups, Schottky groups, etc. There are also interesting connections to hyperbolic geometry.</p><p>Finally, in Part III, a third aspect of the subject is treated, the Penrose tesselation.
