Abstract: Decorative design hollows in tiles composed of two affixed layers, a faceplate with a graphic design pattern hallow and solid backing plate. Layers are assembled with adhesive flexible to minimize stress due to substrate flex and temperature changes. Added bonding strength is provided by the mounting cement flowing through chamfered holes in backing plate creating a dove tail type bond. Hollow is filled upon tile installation with grout of similar color as abutting tiles or a contrasting colored grout for unique effects giving the end user unlimited graphic design and color scheme opportunities. The decorative tile is installed using common practice techniques as used with abutting non-decorative design tiles, i.e. cement and grout.
