О книге

Excerpt from Home Suggestions

And a most appealing point about tiled surfaces is the distinct originality and individuality of each effect. There is nothing ready-made about tiled floors and walls, because in each case the tile units are selected and applied to suit the space; your preference can have the greatest sway. Wallpapers, fabrics, rugs, linoleum, all come in manufactured patterns, and the same pattern is used in many homes. But in tiles, there arc no limitations and fixed patterns of this sort, because tiles are units and can be assembled in an endless variety of ways. Colors and textures can be chosen and combined into designs suitable to the function of the room and sizes and shapes used in keeping with the architectural scale. The various kinds of unglazed, glazed, inlaid, embossed, bright, dull, and matt finished tiles, which are made in squares, oblongs, hexagons, octagons, triangles and circles, and in an unlimited color range, are an inexhaustible source for original designs and effects. This makes it possible to impress individuality and distinctiveness upon any home.

From a utilitarian standpoint tiles are just as desirable. Their durability is almost proverbial. They are not susceptible to becoming shabby. The colors do not fade or change even in the strongest sunlight. The surface does not wear off. They remain new ever, and retain their original freshness and attractiveness.
