Cartesian coordinates

Cartesian coordinates for the vertices of an icositruncated dodecadodecahedron are all the even permutations of

{\begin{array}{crrlc}{\Bigl (}&\pm {\bigl [}2-{\frac {1}{\varphi }}{\bigr ]},&\pm \,1,&\pm {\bigl [}2+\varphi {\bigr ]}&{\Bigr )},\\{\Bigl (}&\pm \,1,&\pm \,{\frac {1}{\varphi ^{2}}},&\pm {\bigl [}3\varphi -1{\bigr ]}&{\Bigr )},\\{\Bigl (}&\pm \,2,&\pm \,{\frac {2}{\varphi }},&\pm \,2\varphi &{\Bigr )},\\{\Bigl (}&\pm \,3,&\pm \,{\frac {1}{\varphi ^{2}}},&\pm \,\varphi ^{2}&{\Bigr )},\\{\Bigl (}&\pm \,\varphi ^{2},&\pm \,1,&\pm {\bigl [}3\varphi -2{\bigr ]}&{\Bigr )},\end{array}}

where $\varphi ={\tfrac {1+{\sqrt {5}}}{2}}$ is the golden ratio.
