One of our new Venetian Collection tiles, Piazza, creates a pattern of linked barbed quatrefoils. The quatrefoil, from the Latin quattuor and folium, “four leaves” became a common theme in Christian art, and reached it’s height in Gothic and Renaissance architecture.
This pattern can be found throughout European architecture, including Notre-Dame de Paris, and the great abundance of of this pattern in Venice inspired Lundy to create this Villa Lagoon Tile exclusive cement tile.
Katie, author of the blog Live Originally, found a stunning example on her honeymoon trip through Europe, in one of the courtyards of the Doge’s Palace in Venice.
