Studio Job has unveiled a collection of mosaic tiles with spooky graphics that depict bones and animal skeletons, just in time for Halloween.
The Perished tile designs were created by the Belgian artists for Italian brand Bisazza, using motifs previously applied to wallpaper and a variety of furniture pieces.
Small squares in two contrasting colours are used to form the shapes of different skeletons.
The forms of animals including monkeys, crocodiles, seahorses, turtles and tropical birds are all used to create a symmetrical pattern that forms a repeat.
Individual bones are displayed end to end, acting as borders along the top and bottom of the image.

"We wanted to create a collection that is exclusive due to the quality of the materials and techniques," said Studio Job, which also recently created the set design for musician Mika's tour.
"Through the skeletons, violent and innocent, their direct graphic forms depict our times which are extravagant and violent," added the studio.
The mosaics are available in two combinations: black and white, and rose gold and brown.
Perished is part of Bisazza's wider 2016 range, which also includes designs by Tom Dixon, Marcel Wanders and Patricia Urquiola.
Studio Job is a partnership between Job Smeets and Nynke Tynagel, who symbolised their romantic break-up as a head-on collision between two steam trains earlier this year.
The artists have an ongoing relationship with Bisazza, which previously presented their designs during Milan design week 2007.
More recent projects include a series of lamps shaped like peeled bananas and a giant crystal-encrusted model for the Swarovski theme park.
