apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

We've seen this often and always like the look, but it's generally with irregularly-shaped, rough stones. The cut stone tile in a strict grid is a cool way to blend the built environment with the natural one. Plus, the ground surface remains pervious when you use grass for "grout", allowing rain water to naturally saturate the earth instead of running off in sheets to the nearest storm drain. See this and more tile ideas at A Tile Guide.
