kaleidoscope patterns

Tumbling symmetric designs

Kaleidoscope patterns are symmetrical, colorful designs that radiate from a center point, like those seen through a kaleidoscope—the tube toy containing mirrors and loose colored fragments.

The term describes any arrangement with similar qualities: repeating geometric shapes, vivid colors, and rotational symmetry.

The stained glass created kaleidoscope patterns on the floor.
