    Even as a kid I was fascinated by inlay and marquetry. Linoleum floor inlay was probably the impetus. I had just about forgotten that
    impetus thing ! Those floors were nice, I think ‘twas “polyurethane” that killed the linoleum.

    Marmoleum is a natural, old fashioned flooring that is gaining popularity. Some of my clients have used it for simple checkerboard designs. Here is a web image of a cool Marmoleum floor.
