Wallpaper group
A wallpaper group is a mathematical classification of a two-dimensional repetitive pattern, based on the
symmetries in the pattern. Such patterns occur frequently in
architecture and
decorative art. There are 17 possible distinct groups.
Wallpaper groups are two-dimensional symmetry groups, intermediate in complexity between the one-dimensional
frieze groups and the three-dimensional crystallographic groups.
