Tile: Art and Architecture

Tiles create patterns, sequences, and order. This work proposes a museum and creative space that showcases clay tiles. The building itself allows for puzzling wayfinding that encourages curiosity and exploration from the visitor, where paths cross and no two experiences in this space should be the same. This work also explores creative processes of tile-making through experimental pieces that have been developed at Virginia Tech's clay studio and accompany this work.
