Vicsek fractal

Vicsek fractal also known as Vicsek snowflake or Box fractal arises in a recurrent construction similar to the one of the Sierpinski carpet. The basic square is decomposed into nine smaller squares in the 3-by-3 grid. The four squares at the corners and the middle square are left, the other squares being removed. The process repeats for each of the five remaining subsquares.
