Cordoba made to measure: whole tiles at both edges

Moorish tilework and Persian carpet patterns share one property: they are built on a grid. That grid is unforgiving. If the wall begins with a whole tile on the left and ends with two thirds of one on the right, the eye finds it immediately, and no amount of beautiful ornament repairs it. Bilbao, Cadiz, Cartagena and Alhambra all depend on that grid being intact.

A standard roll cannot know how wide your wall is. We can, because we are the designers and we build the file only after you have given us the measurements. We centre the grid so both edges finish with the same element, and we do the same vertically so the ceiling does not cut a row of tiles in half. Around a door frame or a fireplace we shift the ornament rather than let it break.

All designs are printed on premium non-woven wallpaper, per wall and to size, paste on the wall. Think your wall is too irregular for a grid like this?
