St. Stephen's Cathedral (Stephansdom) is the most important Catholic Church in Vienna. It has a multi-colored tile roof with a diamond pattern and two tall towers. It is the most recognizable symbol of the city.

 

The church was dedicated to St. Stephen, who was also the patron of the bishop’s cathedral in Passau. The church was oriented toward the sunrise on his feast day of 26 December, as the position stood in the year that construction began.

 

St. Stephen's Cathedral was severely damaged by fire in the last days of the Second World War and virtually reduced to rubble. But with seemingly everyone lending a hand, the cathedral was rebuilt in just seven years: the emblem of Austria and symbol of Austrian identity had risen once more from the ashes.

using the smaller tiles around the fixtures gives you easy cuts!

this bathroom used to be pink 50's tile, the pieces here were all laid out on the floor to vary the shades and texture, favorite shapes were placed at eye level, so if you are in the shower you see the 'cool' pieces, regular stuff placed near the floor behind sink etc. one of the tiles looked like an elephant. mark all your tiles with the direction on the back that you want them placed with and arrow. # the tiles in rows and columns, write the system on the wall too, put it together like a puzzle. this way you won't have tons of light or dark patches.

 

there are not alot of designs shared on flicker of actual work, but a lot of adverstisements so we thought we would share some more work projects, since the tile work done on my brothers bathroom has so many hits.

Nice modern architecture at the Getty Center structures in Los Angeles.

Drain tiling is the placement of polyethylene (a type of plastic) tubing below the surface of the ground for the purpose of draining excess water from the surface or subsurface of an agricultural field (in this instance).

 

For the agricultural producer, some of the intended benefits are: more area to crop (less water-covered), earlier into the field to plant (dries out quicker), don't have to drive around potholes when running equipment (more economical, saves fuel and overlap), better yields with less crops "drowning out", and tiling can be a tool to minimize crop losses due to increased salinity (high amount of "salts" in the soils due to other farming practices and high water tables). These benefits are not always guaranteed.

 

What about the unintended consequences that are (in many times) passed on to neighbors, other parts of the country, or won't take place until the future?

Some of these effects are: Loss of some nutrient and chemical filtration (these waters trickle through only a little soil before they are in the pipe and drained into a large lake or river), loss of wildlife habitat, loss of groundwater recharge for aquifers and those that get their water from wells, and potential contribution to increased flooding and pollution of neighbor's lands and/or rivers during spring flood season or after large rain events.

 

Normally, these waters would slowly seep down into the ground to recharge aquifers or would evaporate into the air. When drained, these waters reach streams or rivers in a matter of hours or days, increasing the flow of the river. Because these waters also have less filtration through the soil, they are direct routes for extra soil nutrients such as nitrates to get into rivers and lakes that serve as water supplies for towns and cities downstream.
