A geometric design of small and large squares rotated 45 degrees of the main axis, with the squares in brown or black stone and the surroundings in white stone.

Calçada portuguesa (Portuguese pavement) is a style of mosaic small stone paving common in Portugal, dating to the 19th century. Common designs include geometric motifs and designs evoking the sea.

It is also slippery AF when wet.

Knowing no path is straight
we still travel
to become
cast in the light
while knowing where it’s from

The line unsteady
As each day that’s passed
The path is followed
But not meant to last
