Design for a round, geometric pattern made up out of two three circles and eight quadrilaterals. Two large circles form the outer frame of the pattern. The third smaller circle forms its center. The space in between is filled with a circular pattern of interlacing and overlapping quadrilaterals, arranged in two squares. Both squares share the same central axis, but they are rotated at an angle of 45 degrees vis-a-vis the other one.
