I am trying to draw two nodes who are on a different layer. The background layer consists of the 'big' node and the foreground layer consist of the 'small' node.
Only the big node can have a background colour without affecting the background colour of the small one.
Below is an image that is produced by the MWE. the 'small' node and it's background should be white.

I thought that the on background layer provided by the backgrounds TikZ library should work, but am I misunderstanding it?

I would not fill the smaller node white. This is because if you have something behind, it will be overpainted. Rather, I'd like to suggest to use even odd rule to spare the smaller node from being filled.

For your nodes you not need to use background layer. Nodes are drawn in order as they are code. So, if you first write bigger node with red fill color and than smaller one with white fill, you will get the following result:

box/.style args = #1/#2draw, fill=#1, minimum size=#2

endtikzpicture

Normal node behavior is to have no background color. Try adding
fill=whiteto the small square.– Alain Merigot

Hi, welcome to TeX.sx. Did you try adding fill=white to the small node? By default a node is transparent.

Adding the fill=white solved the issue. I did not know that nodes are transparent by default. Thank you very much!
