Increasingly complex geometrical patterns was used by Persian designers in tiles which later greatly influenced mediaeval Islamic tilling and architecture. Persian designers and architects used geometric tiling methods and self-similar transformations to construct perfect periodic tiles, at least five centuries before their elaborate and sophisticated mathematical foundation was discovered by Western mathematicians.

This geometric design is based on a type of tiling method known as the “Girih” pattern in which patterns are formed as tessellations of a special set of tiles (“girih tiles”) each decorated with lines enabling unlimited possibilities for mesmerising patterns.
