How to Floor Tile
OCTOBER 9, 2016
Niche placement can be tricky for many reasons as well as size but you do have options. Often because of the existing framing behind the cement board your niche inset will have to go on one side of the mixer controls or the other because of the limited space. Other sinister objects like electrical and vent lines can conspire to limit the size or even the entire option of a niche to hold all the necessary shower tools and liquids.

The Norwegian Mountaineering Center by Reiulf Ramstad Arkitekter juts up into the sky from the Romsdal Fjord in Åndalsnes, Norway. Its massive, angular tower mimics snow-capped mountains in the distance. Instead of using rocks and snow, however, the design covers the building with a pixelated copy of the mountains made in tiles. This height allows for extra high rock walls on the interior.
