In a hyperbolic three-dimensional space, dodecahedral cells of order 4 are one of the four compact regular space-filling mosaics (or cells ). Having a Schlefli {5,3,4} symbol , the cells have four dodecahedrons around each edge and 8 dodecahedrons around each vertex in an octahedral arrangement. The tops of the cells are built on 3 orthogonal axes. The dual body of honeycombs are .
Geometric cells are multi - faceted cells that fill the space in such a way that there are no free spaces left. Honeycombs are an example of a more general mathematical concept of paving in spaces of any dimension.
Honeycombs are usually built in the usual Euclidean ("flat") space like . They can also be constructed in non-Euclidean spaces , such as . Any finite can be projected onto its described sphere in order to form homogeneous cells on a spherical space.

Description
The dihedral angle of the dodecahedron is ~ 116.6 °, so it is impossible to place 4 dodecahedrons on an edge in a Euclidean 3-dimensional space. However, in a hyperbolic space for a dodecahedron, one can choose the size so that its dihedral angles are reduced to 90 degrees, and then four dodecahedrons precisely fill the space around each edge.
Symmetry
Honeycombs are constructed with half symmetry, {5.3 1.1 }, with two types (colors) of hexagonal mosaics in the Witthoff structure . ↔ .
