The Bounding diamond of a pattern is the smallest diamond that fits the entire object. The diamond is diagonal lines meeting up with a side length of 1 or 2 depending on the size.

The block, tub, pond and generation 5 of the T-tetromino represent the edges of the bounding diamond of width 2, 3, 4 and 5 respectively. The "octagon" phase of the octagon II represent the edges of the bounding diamond of width 8.
