square tile

Even-sided flooring unit

A square tile is a flat, typically ceramic or stone piece with four equal sides, used for covering floors, walls, or other surfaces.

The square shape allows tiles to fit together in a simple grid pattern without gaps.

The bathroom floor was covered in white square tiles.

Square distinguishes from hexagonal, rectangular, or other tile shapes.
