Puerto Rico is best known for piña coladas and Salsa music but it is also home to beautiful examples of Spanish Colonial and modern Caribbean architecture. Puerto Rico experienced a building boom at the beginning of the 20th century, just as the technology for designing and making hydraulic tiles was becoming popular in the Caribbean. In recent years, the tile industry in Puerto Rico has been seeing a revival of traditional designs and new wave of tile design. The designs featured in this book are based on historic designs from the height of Puerto Rican tile design in the first half of the 1900s.
