A Tile glass panel was employed in front
of the walls of the billiard room. Not only
does it light up the perimeter of the room,
but it also creates a perception of depth
and space. Thanks to its brilliance and
reflections, the walls around the room
become decorative elements instead of
being a mere delimitation of the space.
Moreover, Tile was also used in front of
a wall mirror. The mirror adds additional
depth to the length of the room whereas
Tile illuminates the corner and creates
the illusion of an infinite glass series.
Finally, Tile was employed as a luxurious
wall lamp. The crystal glasses stand out
in front of the slate walls for a very
sophisticated effect.

The main issue encountered by the architect, in this
project, was dealing with small spaces and low ceilings.
It was necessary for him to work around this by making
the spaces look bigger and more spacious.
With this in mind, the architect created an illusion of
high ceilings and spacious areas through the clever use
of the different materials.
The perception of the actual space is altered when
employing reflecting materials like marble, onyx or
glass.
For this reason, Tile was the suitable choice in the
decoration of the walls.
