This work is a thorough and detailed study on the geometry of the unit sphere of certain Banach spaces of homogeneous polynomials in ${\mathbb{R}}^2$. Specifically, we provide a complete description of the unit spheres, identify the extreme points of the unit balls, derive explicit formulas for the corresponding polynomial norms, and describe the techniques required to tackle these questions. To enhance the comprehensiveness of this work, we complement the results and their proofs with suitable diagrams and figures. The new results presented here settle some open questions posed in the past. For the sake of completeness of this work, we briefly discuss previous known results and provide directions of research and applications of our results.
