I had occasion to visit an American Legion post this weekend, for a memorial for my father. When I went down to the service kitchen I was impressed by just how cool it was- all because of the incredibly fabulous checkerboard floor.
I took a shot of the floor with Maureen, one of the lovely Auxillary ladies who was helping with the food for the service. I love the way a checkerboard floor, made from even the most mundane material (linoleum or paint), can transform a space into something fun and dynamic.
The laundry room floor photo was taken while I was visiting a friend.
I was impressed by the great color scheme (it matched my scarf perfectly), how the time was taken to make these inexpensive tiles in a utility room return more than their money’s worth in great design.
