Square tiles, u-shape faucets, window grids, and chalkboard backsplashes covered with mathematical formulas.
This week the Remodelista editors discovered modern eclecticism and geometric figures in some of their favorite interior spaces. Here are five design ideas to steal:
Cement Tiles
Above: Founded by the Huguet family on Mallorca in the early 1930s, the Huguet tile company embraces traditional continues while also partnering with first-rate architects and designers (collaborators include Swiss architects Herzog & de Meuron, English architect David Chipperfield, Mallorcan fashion designer Sybilla Sorondo, and Swiss designer Alfredo Häberli). See more in this week’s Cement Tiles post.
U-Shape Faucets
Above: The U-shape faucet, favored by architects and designers alike for its timeless look, caught Alexa’s eye this week. She rounds up 10 stylish versions (11, actually—she got enthusiastic) in this week’s 10 Easy Pieces post.
Chalkboard Paint

Above: In a room riotously layered in patterns, the simplicity of a black porcelain doorknob exudes calm. See more in this week’s Steal This Look post.
Leaded windows symmetrically arranged around a central arch draw the eye toward the trees and shrubbery outdoors, the greens echoed by fabrics on indoor furnishings.
