I'm 99,9% sure it's the "tile" layout[1]. Also from what I see the
fair layout has all window boundaries fixed -- in my case I can move
the horizontal ones but not the vertical.

Is there by any chance any screencast explaining the basic concepts,
the terminology, typical usage scenarios and shortcuts? A couple of
minutes would worth a million words. I've found one in you tube
(awesome 101 part 1,2) by searching the list archives. It was
excellent as a quick intro but didn't have enough detail.

Why I believe it's "tile": from what I can tell mod4 + space cycles
between the layouts defined in my rc.lua config in the order that they
appear. I'm using the 1st layout after the floating one (it's easy to
spot this one from it's "classic wm" behavior). Since my rc.lua has
these lines:

layouts =
{
    awful.layout.suit.floating,
    awful.layout.suit.tile,
    awful.layout.suit.tile.left,
    ...

it's a safe guess that the name of the layout I'm using is "tile"
