It stands in roughly the same relation to the normal rhombic dodecahedron as US paper does to international standard paper: it's made from rhombuses whose long diagonal is ϕ times the short diagonal, whereas the normal rhombic dodecahedron is made from rhombuses whose long diagonal is √2 times the short diagonal.
