Sacred spaces
Saint Chapelle in Paris is a museum now, but once it was the place of worship for kings. It was built by Louis IX to house holy relics including what was believed to be the crown of thorns worn by Jesus on the cross.
The crown has been moved to a safer location, there are no more French kings and worship services are not held here anymore. You can still feel the echoes, even full of tourists there is a higher presence
This is the art that inspired William Morris and Gothic Revival

Making encaustic cement tiles, where colored cement is poured in patterns to make the motif

The liquid cement is then set with powdered cement and the whole thing is pressed together

I became obsessed with encaustic tile in 2020, when a town hall in the eastern US took advantage of the lockdown to rip out the battered linoleum floor in a heavily traveled hallway and discovered a gorgeous encaustic tile floor underneath. Encaustic tiles have been in use since the Victorian era. This video has talking, but I found it interesting because it uses an unusual method. Instead of pouring all the colors at once, this manufacturer presses clay into a relief mold and then pours colored glaze in the depression surrounding the image. (I don’t quite recognize the posh gentleman getting the tour so I’m sure I’ll feel very silly once he’s identified.)

Anyway. I think encaustic tiles are very cool and I’m a little jealous of any craftsperson who gets to keep a tradition alive. I hope you enjoy too ☺️

SIMS 4 - ENCHANTING ENCAUSTIC FLOOR TILES - BASE GAME
There are 8 packages in this set, one for each of the 8 patterns. The colours all match between them for maximum design options.
What does Encaustic mean?
"Encaustic painting, also known as hot wax painting, is a form of painting that involves a heated wax medium to which colored pigments have been added. The molten mix is applied to a surface—usually prepared wood, though canvas and other materials are sometimes used. The simplest encaustic medium could be made by adding pigments to wax, though recipes most commonly consist of beeswax and damar resin, potentially with other ingredients. For pigmentation, dried powdered pigments can be used, though some artists use pigmented wax, inks, oil paints or other forms of pigmentation." - ENCAUSTIC ART INSTITUTE
 These Encaustic tiles have been covered with a nice thick matte top coat so there is no danger of the artwork on the tiles deteriorating.
Some of the patterns have 19 colours, some 18. This is because I added a white base to some of them, while other busier patterns didn't require it. Check out the pics to see everything!
