Carrelage has been inspired by some of the remarkable floor tiles which can be found at the Chateau de Langeais in Indre-et-Loire, France. The chateau was originally built as a fortress in the 10th century but was virtually destroyed by the English during the Hundred Years War (1337 – 1453).
The castle was rebuilt circa 1465 during the reign of Louis XI and now stands as one of the finest examples of medieval architecture especially noted for its richly decorated rooms.
