Square, Rectangle, Trapezoid, Tetrizoid!
By Christa TerryWhy did someone finally start manufacturing proper Tetris tiles? The right answer is “Why not?”
These custom-made tiles from the UK are crafted from Italian ceramics and are suitable for indoor or outdoor use, meaning you can tile just about anything with them. I have to say I do prefer the actual Tetris piece shaped tiles — with the Tetris pieces, you could base your layout on random choices, making decorating very much like actually playing a game of Tetris — rather than the Tetris mosaic, but that’s only because the mosaics don’t immediately look like Tetris pieces to me. Maybe, however, that would be a selling point for some who would prefer a subtler video gaming reference in their personal space.
If you’re anything like me, you’re lusting after these pretty hardcore and wondering just how much they cost. Prices are based on the size of your order and possibly your color choices — Tetris Tiles can be matched to most Pantone-colour references — so I have no idea whatsoever.

OMG WIN!!!!!!!!!
Er, um… by that I mean to say that I am a bit of a Tetris aficionado and deem these tiles to be delightful in all ways.
