Symmetry Groups

The vast majority of all the muqarnas forms I have developed are based upon the 32-fold symmetry shown at the left. An animation of it can be viewed here. This symmetry group possesses sixteen (16) unique tile/surface types. They can be seen here.
 
Below the comments section is a table with information about symmetry groups suitable for mogharnas including and beyond those already being investigated.

Symmetry Group Properties

1.) Symmetry groups for which I’ve designed tile/surface sets and developed muqarnas are underlined in bold.
2.) Sometimes 1.) also includes complete surface/tile sets for other ‘contained’ symmetry groups that are underlined only. For example the animation on the Cruciform page shows the regular dome for the 32-fold tile/surface set and shows the regular domes which can be made from that set. This includes the 16-fold, 8-fold, and 4-fold regular domes. None of these domes include the vertical tile/surface, but they could have.
