tile layout

Ceramic placement scheme

Tile layout is the arrangement pattern of tiles on a surface—floors, walls, backsplashes, or roofs.

Common patterns include grid, diagonal, herringbone, and brick (offset).

In computing, tile layout refers to how windows or interface elements are arranged in non-overlapping rectangles across a screen.
