Full Coverage with Small Tiles: Walls and Floors Clad

A space fully covered with small-sized tiles. The tiles are very small, about ten centimeters square or smaller, with saturated monochrome glazes—cobalt blue, emerald green, or ochre orange. They cover the walls, floors, and sometimes even the ceilings and furniture surfaces, with the tile arrangement continuous and unbroken at corners. Because the units are small and extremely numerous, the joints form a dense and regular grid texture, making the entire space appear wrapped in a thick skin. Simple geometric patterns—stripes, diamonds, or checkerboards—are partially formed by tiles of another color. Paired with white plaster and brass hardware. Light falling on the glazed surface creates numerous tiny reflective points. Avoid: using large-sized tiles, making the grid of joints disappear, using low-saturation colors, only tiling walls while using other materials for the floor.

一個以小尺寸磁磚滿鋪的空間。磚的尺寸很小,約十公分見方或更小,釉色是飽和的單色——鈷藍、祖母綠或赭橘。它們被鋪滿牆面、地面,有時連天花與家具的表面也一起貼,轉角處磚的排列連續不中斷。因為單元小、數量極多,接縫構成一片密集而規律的網格紋理,整個空間像被一層有厚度的皮膚包住。局部以另一種顏色的磚排出簡單的幾何圖案——條紋、菱形或棋盤。搭配白色的灰泥與黃銅五金。光落在釉面上產生大量細小的反光點。避免:使用大尺寸的磁磚、讓接縫的網格消失、使用低彩度的顏色、只貼牆面而地面用別的材料。
