Rhombic dodecahedral honeycomb cells. The vertices with the acute rhombic face angles have 6 cells. The rhombic dodecahedron can be twisted on one of its hexagonal cross-sections to form a trapezo-rhombic dodecahedron, which is the cell of a somewhat similar tessellation, the Voronoi diagram of hexagonal close-packing. The "rhombic dodecahedral honeycomb" can be dissected into a trigonal trapezohedral honeycomb with each rhombic dodecahedron dissected into 4 trigonal trapezohedrons. Each rhombic dodecahedra can also be dissected with a center point into 12 rhombic pyramids of the rhombic pyramidal honeycomb. The trapezo-rhombic dodecahedral honeycomb is a space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb) in Euclidean 3-space. It consists
Cubic-octahedral honeycomb There are 5 related uniform honeycombs generated within the same family, generated with 2 or more rings of the Coxeter group : , , , , . The rectified cubic-octahedral honeycomb is a compact uniform honeycomb, constructed from cuboctahedron, and rhombicuboctahedron cells, in a cuboid vertex figure. It has a Coxeter diagram . The cyclotruncated cubic-octahedral honeycomb is a compact uniform honeycomb, constructed from truncated cube, octahedron cells, in a square antiprism vertex figure. It has a Coxeter diagram . It can be seen as somewhat analogous to the trioctagonal tiling with truncated square and triangle facets: The cyclotruncated octahedral-cubic
