latticework

Woven barrier pattern

Latticework is a structure of crisscrossing strips—wood, metal, or other material—forming a pattern of open spaces.

It appears in fences, trellises, and decorative screens, allowing air and light to pass through while providing partial enclosure: Roses climbed the latticework on the porch.

The pattern itself, or anything resembling it, may be called latticework: a latticework of shadows on the floor.
