Architects Lily Jencks and Nathanael Dorent have teamed up and fitted out a tile showroom in London to look like a psychedelic cartoon. Porcelain tiles in four different monochrome shades were installed across every surface inside the Capitol Designer Studio, a small tile showroom in London's Primrose Hill. Drawing inspiration from the mind-boggling images of Op Art and Gestalt psychology, the tiles are laid out in a zigzagging pattern that warps perspective at the back of the space. "It's just a simple herringbone pattern," said Nathanael Dorent, "but we've applied it in three dimensions, to create something really eye-popping".
