rhombic

Like tilted squares

Rhombic describes something having the shape or structure of a rhombus—a parallelogram with four equal sides.

The term appears most often in technical contexts: rhombic crystals, rhombic patterns, rhombic antenna.

In geometry and crystallography, rhombic specifies a particular symmetry where angles aren't necessarily right angles but sides are equal in length.
