Abstract
The two-dimensional infinite array of geometrical points symmetrically arranged in a plane where the different motifs may be placed to create the patterns is known as plane lattice. Figures 2.1 and 2.2 are the examples of plane lattices, where the neighborhood of every point is identical. Figures 2.1 and 2.2 are two types of plane lattices, where motifs are to be placed to generate the desired patterns [1].
