This morning a visitor to the Immigration Discovery Centre came in with photographs of floor tiles, ready to talk about the floors she'd visited in Victoria and around the world, including the above example from a temple in Singapore. She was fascinated by the tiles in the "Long Room" of Immigration Museum's own building, Old Customs House, which have been painstakingly and beautifully restored. So we chatted about tiles for a while, locating useful resources on the subject, and comparing colour schemes. Apparently green was in fashion, once, but only very briefly.
