Last Sunday I wrote<\/a> about the inspiration that could be found in the indoor pool at Hearst Castle. OMG! I love the colors in that indoor pool! Although, I have to admit, it should come as no surprise to you.<\/p>\n

There is a lot of other tile around the estate. As I have said about 100,000,000,000 times, I love tiles and mosaics. Some of these were some of the most inspirational I have ever seen., including being inspired for quiltmaking designs.<\/p>\n

The photo to the left would be an interesting baby quilt. The circles could incorporate fusible or machine applique’. The center could be redesigned a little bit to be more geometric and pieced.<\/p>\n

\"Cottage<\/a>

Each of the cottages had tile at the roofline. Those tiles were different colors and had different motifs. I could only see the tiles in the photo (left) by taking the photo with the zoom at ‘extreme’<\/p>\n

The bonus was the plasterwork (not sure of the technique) on this particular cottage. I love the ceiling decoration, but I also like the gargoyles. They are more funny than scary. All of them were just a bit different, but equally hilarious.<\/p>\n

I like the idea of the roof tiles. I think it adds a bit of interest to the\u00a0 rooflines. I think it would add something to those cookie cutter townhomes and apartments most large cities are putting up around public transport.<\/p>\n

Anyway, the Hearst estate is a wonderful source of fabulous inspiration. If you have an opportunity to visit, don’t hesitate.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
