A background should sit behind the text, not in place of it. This paragraph lies on the tile at its true scale — if it reads without effort, the tile can go under content.
Magenta-pink rosettes with mottled, watercolor-like texture sit on a field of soft blue and pale turquoise, each rosette centered with a pale star-shaped bloom. Smaller magenta florets fill the gaps between them, and the rosettes and florets alternate in a regular grid, so the eye reads a steady diagonal rhythm across the page.
