tiling
This term functions primarily as a gerund or a collective noun, describing either the act of installation or the resulting visual pattern. When referring to the process of applying tiles to a wall or floor, it is treated as an uncountable activity, similar to "plastering" or "painting."
In mathematical and geometric contexts, the term refers to "tessellation." Here, it describes the precise arrangement of shapes to fill a plane. While the physical result of tiling can be discussed as a single installation, the word remains predominantly uncountable unless referring to specific, distinct types of tiling styles across different projects.
