Piece based on the rhombic triacontahedron, one of the solids described by the Belgian mathematician Eugène Catalan in 1965, and directly related to the archimedean solid, the icosidodecahedron.

The center of the figure resembles a polyhedron of thirty equal sides, with two types of nodes: twenty with three outputs and twelve with five outputs. The nodes are connected, one to one, in series of 3/5/3/5 around each light output.
