content: In this cut and folded paper model, a square is cut out of each face of a cube. On the inside of the model are eight regular hexagons, each having alternate edges along sides of the square holes.Thus, with six faces from the cube and eight from the inner hexagons, the model has a total of fourteen faces. It is closely related to a union of the cube and a regular octahedron (see MA.304723.069)..
