Gio ponti blue tile magnet

The tiles were originally designed for The Hotel Parco dei Principi located by the deep-blue sea in Sorrento, Southern Italy. The hotel’s guest rooms are decorated with strikingly blue tiles that seem to blend into the sea. The tiles were designed by Gio Ponti,an architect who was a leading figure of Italian modernism.Ponti’s hand from the early 1960s is seen in everything from the building design down to its interiors and furniture. One of the most enchanting aspects of the hotel is its tiles,arranged in thirty geometric patterns. While the individual patterns are in themselves quite simple.
