Abstract

Islamic star patterns are a beautiful and highly geometric art form whose original design techniques arelost in history. We describe one procedure for constructing them based on placing radially-symmetric motifs in a formation dictated by a tiling of the plane, and show some styles in which they can be rendered. We also show some results generated with a software implementation of the technique.
