CERAMICA

By: khalid selmane fares

the first clay tiles were produced seven to eight thousand years ago, And since that time little has changed fundamentally in the tile setting trade. The most notable historic event that comes to mind is the invention of cement mortar by the Romans. New methods and materials have, of course, been introduced, but tile setting remains a hand-operated, labor-intensive process, and it's not likely to change soon. In an age when "downsizing" and mass layoffs are commonplace, tile setters have achieved true job security, working their tails off in the process. This magnificent and vibrant book contains 40 patterns designs drawn by designer Fares Khalid Selmane are rich source of inspiration for tiles designers, artists, artisans etc.
