This tiling is icosahedral throughout every generation of the sun structure. The components used in this tesselation are (rhombic hexecontahedron, acute golden rhombihedron, obtuse golden rhombihedron, rhombic icosahedron)

Penrose tiling is an aperiodic space filling tesselation that is always composed from a set of phi based tiles. Aperiodic means that shifting the tiling by any distance, without rotation, will cause overlapping. However, despite their lack of transition symmetry, Penrose tilings may have both reflectional symmetry and fivefold rotational symmetry. Penrose tilings repeat their pattern indefinitely, filling all space, and there are an infinite set of penrose tilings in every dimension (The penrose multiverse). These quasicrystaline structures have been found in nature (icosahedralite, decagonite, and in meteors) they are composed of atoms at every apex of the tesselation. An icosahedral quasicrystal is effective at dampening vibrations, as the spherical form distributes load evenly.
