Several views of the
Weaire-Phelan partition are shown below. A fundamental region of
8 different colored cells is shown. Two cells (green and blue)
are dodecahedra, and the other six are 14-sided with two opposite
hexagonal faces and 12 pentagonal faces. The 14-sided cells stack
into three sets of orthogonal columns, and the dodecahedra fit
into the interstices between the columns.
