In some Anglo Saxon gospels, there are what appear to be deliberate mistakes in the illustrations, historians think these may be done to prove / remind that man will never attain perfection, that alone belongs to god.
Part of me wishes, this is the same sentiment being exppressed by the tiler who put that floor down :D

I've heard the same story
about rugs in Islam. Especially if they're in the same room where a Qur'an is kept.
Much to my credit it's something I've never bothered to verify. I think I asked a muslim about it once and they just said, "What?"

I have to confess
I moved into my house about 17 years ago, and the first thing I noticed was one of the balusters on the stairs was upside down. It was very irritating. And still is.

That would have been deliberate
Like the guy mentioned earlier, artists liked to leave a flaw in their work to demonstrate their product will never be as perfect as God's. A good example is in Byron's personal chapel.

Can't say I know how that feels.
I HAVE had dirt stuck underneath the screen in the past. Was not fun at all.

Great.
As a bonus, the floor pattern provides an excellent optical illusion when you scroll up and down, particularly using the mouse wheel, for some reason.

Can't look at it. I'd have already dug it up and put it right.
