We were recently in a tile studio and saw the technique of laying without rails or profiles.
At the end of the wall the tiles just stopped, there seemed to be no extra end at all.
When laying at a 90 degree angle, the top horizontal tile was just laid flush with the bottom tile, of course the edge is visible on the top tile, but it looks just as good as with baseboards or trims, etc.
Does anyone know if this laying technique has a flaw or does the technique have a special name? I believe the edges break more easily than the stucco when touched.
