In geometry, the snub square tiling is a semiregular tiling of the Euclidean plane. There are three triangles and two squares on each vertex. It has Schläfli symbol of s{4,4}.
There are 3 regular and 8 semiregular tilings in the plane.
This tiling is related to the elongated triangular tiling which also has 3 triangles and two squares on a vertex, but in a different order.
There are two distinct vertex-uniform colorings of a snub square tiling. (Naming the colors by indices around a vertex (3.3.4.3.4): 11212, 11213.) The coloring shown 12313 is not uniform.
