Snub Square Prismatic Honeycomb
The cubic honeycomb or cubic cellulation is the only proper regular space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb) in Euclidean 3-space made up of cubic cells. It has 4 cubes around every edge, and 8 cubes around each vertex. Its vertex figure is a regular octahedron. It is a self-dual tessellation with Schläfli symbol . John Horton Conway called this honeycomb a cubille. Related honeycombs It is part of a multidimensional family of hypercube honeycombs, with Schläfli symbols of the form , starting with the square tiling, in the plane. It is one of 28 uniform honeycombs using convex uniform polyhedral cells. Isometries of simple cubic lattices Simple cubic lattices can be distorted into lower symmetries, represented by lower crystal systems: Uniform colorings There is a large number of uniform colorings, derived from different symmetries. These include: Projections The ''cubic honeycomb'' can be orthogonally projected into the euclidean plane with various symmetry a ...
