In geometry, the snub hexahexagonal tiling is a uniform tiling of the hyperbolic plane. It has Schläfli symbol of sr{6,6}.

Drawn in chiral pairs, with edges missing between black triangles:

Symmetry

A higher symmetry coloring can be constructed from [6,4] symmetry as s{6,4}, . In this construction there is only one color of hexagon.
