Dodecahedron dodecahedron has several stellations, the first of which is also a parallelohedral spacefiller. Another important rhombic dodecahedron, the Bilinski dodecahedron, has twelve faces congruent to those of the rhombic triacontahedron, i.e. the diagonals are in the ratio of the golden ratio. It is also a zonohedron and was described by Bilinski in 1960. This figure is another spacefiller, and can also occur in non-periodic spacefillings along with the rhombic triacontahedron, the rhombic icosahedron and rhombic hexahedra. There are 6,384,634 topologically distinct "convex" dodecahedra, excluding mirror images—the number of vertices ranges from 8 to 20. (Two polyhedra are "topologically distinct" if
Bilinski dodecahedron Bilinski dodecahedron the shorter body diagonals of this type have no parallel face diagonals. The Bilinski dodecahedron can be formed from the rhombic triacontahedron (another zonohedron with 30 golden rhombic faces) by removing or collapsing two zones or belts of faces with parallel edges. Removing only one of these two zones produces, instead, the rhombic icosahedron, and removing three produces the golden rhombohedra. The Bilinski dodecahedron can be dissected into four golden rhombohedra, two of each type. The vertices of these zonohedra can be computed by linear combinations of 3 to 6 vectors.
