QR Code Coasters

Ceramic Tiles which become a QR Code when pieced together?  You bet!  This was the first project that I completed at the Burning House Art Studio, and I think it went very well!

These individual ceramic tiles become a QR code when assembled in the correct sequence.

These clay tiles are shown assembled in the correct sequence to be read by a QR Code scanner.

I am very happy with how this project came out.  There are two types of glaze on these tiles.  A gloss black and a crackle gloss cote for white.  Because I haven't done anything with clay for years, I really wasn't sure how the white would look when it came out of the kiln.  I didn't think it needed to be 'white white' to be read by a QR scanner, but figured it had to be bright enough to contrast with the black squares.  It couldn't have come out better.  The tiles are scannable and usable as coasters.  Nice!
