The square tiles were used for covering the wall, the rectangular ones for bordering the tile surface. Although these tiles were printed in one colour, the different screen network of the inner lines create the impression of a shaded graphic drawing. The tile is decorated with diagonal white ribbons enriched with circles between two stripes, creating smaller and larger squares on the wall when the tiles were mounted. The smaller squares are decorated with stylized leaves.
