Great icosihemidodecahedron


In geometry, the great icosihemidodecahedron is a nonconvex uniform polyhedron, indexed as U71. Its vertex figure is a crossed quadrilateral.

It is a hemipolyhedron with 6 decagrammic faces passing through the model center.

Its convex hull is the icosidodecahedron. It also shares its edge arrangement with the great icosidodecahedron (having the triangular faces in common), and with the great dodecahemidodecahedron (having the decagrammic faces in common).

There is some controversy on how to colour the faces of this polyhedron. Although the common way to fill in a polygon is to just colour its whole interior, this can result in some filled regions hanging as membranes over empty space. Hence, the "neo filling" is sometimes used instead as a more accurate filling. In the neo filling, orientable polyhedra are filled traditionally, but non-orientable polyhedra have their faces filled with the modulo-2 method (only odd-density regions are filled in).
