Cantitruncated cubic honeycomb

Cantitruncated cubic honeycomb

The cantitruncated cubic honeycomb is a uniform space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb) in Euclidean 3-space, made up of truncated cuboctahedra, truncated octahedra, and cubes in a ratio of 1:1:3.

Uniform colorings

Cells can be shown in two different symmetries. The linear Coxeter-Dynkin diagram form can be drawn with one color for each cell type. The bifurcating diagram form can be drawn with two types (colors) of truncated cuboctahedron cells alternating.
