Mosaic tilework, called zellij is often used for decorations. In this case, inside a medresa, an Islamic school.
Being such, it has script from the Koran as part of the decoration. This is also popular in mosques and palaces.

Tiles that Glister (1260-1310)
Much Iranian tilework is of exceptional quality and variety. These are examples of lustre tiles, which potters made in two stages. First they created blank, glazed tiles. Sometimes they painted part of the design into the glaze in blue before firing.
When the tile was cold, a painter executed the main decoration in metallic pigment.
The potter then refired the tile, and the metal fused to the glaze to create a reflective, glistering design.

Epic Iran
(May - September 2021)
Epic Iran explores 5,000 years of Iranian art, design and culture, bringing together over 300 objects from ancient, Islamic and contemporary Iran.
Iran was home to one of the great historic civilisations, yet its monumental artistic achievements remain unknown to many. Epic Iran explores this civilisation and the country's journey into the 21st century, from the earliest known writing – signalling the beginning of history in Iran – through to the 1979 Revolution and beyond. Ranging from sculpture, ceramics and carpets, to textiles, photography and film, the works in this exhibition reflect the country's vibrant historic culture, architectural splendours, the abundance of myth, poetry and tradition that have been central to Iranian identity for millennia, and the evolving, self-renewing culture evident today.

Make a right turn and saw the kitchen already had some cabinet base done up at the area where hacking of the wall will not affect it.
The first photo is that of our kitchen sink + hob area. That slab of base at the side is for our tall cabinet.
The second photo shows the base for our washer + dryer already done up! :)
Developing the Light (part 2 of 5)
Intent: Blue up the ambient bkgrnd light and keep the face looking happy. Emphasis the face by letting the main light falloff down the body.
Execution: Set the camera WB to tungsten, blueing the ambient daylight. Full CTO gel the main light (camRT) with a grid and aim slightly above the eyes..
Problem: Grey hoodie goes blue and blends into bkgrnd. Face a little blue.
