 | Kepler-Poinsot Polyhedra |
The Kepler-Poinsot solids are the four non-convex regular polyhedra.
Each one has identical regular faces, and identical regular vertex figures.
These models were made using nets generated by
Great Stella,
but could also be made using
Stella4D
or
Small Stella.

about how I built them.
| | Stack them up! |

|
The small and great stellated dodecahedra both stack up very well.
Each one should ideally be scaled by the
golden ratio with respect to the
next one in the stack. The models fit together prefectly, and various
points, lines, and planes align with each other as if by magic.

Here are the same stacks viewed from above.
