Another one more elaborate, with these colours it resembles fire. With other colours could be birds joining into the center.

@ark_brut Elsewhere, two squares have been cut in and broken the elegance of the Cairo tiling. The horror!

@ark_brut Nice, I made the transition in a different way (and direction).
This four level Cairo tiling has two kinds of transitions. The first transition uses a rhombus (visible in some parts of the original paving). The second transition uses irregular quadrilaterals radiating from a vertex. I avoided the original’s thin parallelograms which seem like a kludge to me.

Decorative tiles in the stairwell of the Connall Building on West George Street in Glasgow, which was constructed in 1898.
I love this Art Nouveau style Victorian tile design from a tenement close in the Dennistoun area of Glasgow.
