Golden Green Thai Temple Roof Tiles Indoor in at the foot of a stone altar in Bangkok

Golden Green Thai Temple Roof Tiles Indoor

by Sue Cordova

Layers of curved ceramic tiles in deep emerald and burnished gold rise in rhythmic tiers against the pale, light-washed walls of a Bangkok sanctuary. Broad skylight floods the space from above, striking the polished surfaces and scattering tiny, sharp highlights across the undulating curves. The roof structure rests at the foot of a weathered stone altar, its rough gray texture against the smooth, lacquered finish of the sacred tiles. Rainy season moisture hangs in the air, visible as a soft sheen on the lower edges of the glaze. The composition places the vibrant roofline along the upper right third, leaving the stone base exposed in the lower left. One droplet of water rests on the edge of the lowest green tile, refracting the overhead light into a miniature spectrum.
