To tile or to wallpaper?

Venusceramica

After wrapping up my wallpaper story, which you can see in this month's March issue, I couldn't quite shake my desire for damask-inspired prints and unique wall-covering materials.

One idea that I wasn't able to include in the collection were these decorative ceramic tiles from Venus Ceramica.

The Spain-based company uses digital printing technology to create their colorful and curving images on the 25x60-inch wall rectangles. Once they're up, you need to touch the wall to tell the difference.

Vcroom The brocade-inspired tiles bring up an interesting question. If given the choice between tiling a wall or papering it, which would you prefer to do?

Let's say, for simplicity, you're working with the black floor, ceilings, and curtains in the room at left—and you're looking for a way to work in some pink.

I haven't quite made up my decision yet, but I feel more inclined to mortar together some squares than to deal with pushing out bubbles from behind vinyl.
