About Storefront Tile

The Storefront Tile group is a collection of images of tile entryways. Tile was a popular material used in storefront design from the late 19th to mid 20th century. There is a large variety of styles, from simple patterns to intricate mosaic designs. Businesses commonly included their name and logo into their tile entryways. Today, tiles' use in storefronts has come back in some commercial construction.

Another popular material used in storefront entries was Terrazzo. This material, composed of polished concrete and marble, may have put an end to tile use in entryways as it was easier to install and was extremely durable. For the group on terrazzo, please see Terrazzo Floors.
