I was playing around with tilings the other week, and stumbled on this odd effect upon overlapping two copies of the same tiling at a 90º angle.
Here, I used multiplicative blending to get at least a cool colorful effect of it, since just the black borders looked a bit bland.
(Would also appreciate pointers on how to get some kind of crystallography-like diffraction out of that pattern, for extra colorful messes 😅)
There are 9 2- and 3-ominoes with a path connecting two cell edges on the perimeter that are separated by a single segment along the perimeter. A checkering parity issue makes a loop impossible, but there is a unique tiling with a single path reaching the border of a 5×5 square at both ends.

Pentagram flowers for #TilingTuesday
A nightrider is a variant chess piece that moves like a knight but then can continue to make additional hops in the same direction. I found a pentomino tiling where all of the pentominoes could be reached by a well placed nightrider, but in my original solution, one piece was reachable in two different positions. Carl Johan Ragnarsson suggested that it might be possible to find a tiling where each pentomino could be reached in exactly one spot, and Bryce Herdt found this solution, which appears to be unique.
Note that this is a rare instance of a pentomino tiling without a balanced, strict 4-coloring. (That is, one where all colors have an equal count, and there is no position where a shape of a given color meets another shape of the same color at a vertex.) Only 19 of the 2339 pentomino tilings of a 6×10 lack such a coloring. (And only one lacks a non-strict balanced coloring!)
