Meander Tile

Tile a wall with a rearrangeable meander

A flat tile with two quarter circles bitten from opposite corners. Hang a field of them on single centre screws and turn each one a quarter at random: the bites meet across the joints and the wall shows a wandering path of circles and S curves, different every time you rearrange it.
