Can this tile be installed in a checkerboard pattern?

11 years ago

I love this tile, but do not like it in the diamond pattern - can it be turned and installed in a checkerboard pattern?

Hello,

This tile can be turned but it will still be a diamond shape. If you want a true checkerboard, you'll have to use squares :-). We're happy to do that too, through Marble Systems.
