thanks to door sixteen, i now know that the designer who chose the color scheme for our bathroom was following a chic art deco trend. it makes me think our tiles may be original to our 1920's building.

I like the tiles on your bathroom floor- the graphic style and I would give something for a bathroom like Hemingway had it: so much light, so many views into a beautiful garden!

Thanks for stopping by - I know what you mean: my dolls are far better dressed than I am! I love your bathroom - the tiles / colours are gorgeous...and that Hemingway bathroom...drool!! And I didn't know that Persepolis had been made into a movie (I loved the books, too) so thanks for that very exciting news!!

At first when I scrolled down I though that was YOUR bathroom! Yours does look original, the subway tile with the thin line detail and the floors, very cool....

Wow, I had no idea. Given how photos weren't in color and bathrooms were probably rarely photographed to begin with, I probably shouldn't be surprised that I was clueless about this sepia color being so huge. Very cool to have original tile.
